Abstract—In this paper, a new kind of printed TEM horn antenna with high-gain fed by balanced microstrip line is proposed. The radiation part of the antenna (printed on the FR4 epoxy substrate) is composed of two symmetrical triangular metal foil branches fed by balanced microstrip line. The antenna has been simulated by CST MICROWAVE STUDIOr software and the simulated results show that the pro...

Metal droplet-based 3D printing provides unique advantages for fabricating micro complex parts. Especially, assisted by soluble support, structures with high-quality inner surfaces can be directly printed without post-processing, which is very promising the fabrication of waveguides and antenna horns. Here, a spatially distributed equidistant helical deposition strategy only one-step positionin...

High data rate transmission is the need of modern wireless communication systems. Broadcast antennas are in demand as EM waves are transmitted at high frequency for high data rate transmission. Low profile, light weight, inexpensive, compact printed antennas are well suited for broadcasting for their ability to operate in broad frequency range. Printed microstrip antenna (Patch antenna) is used...

A novel complex structure of Printed Dielectric Resonator Monopole Antenna (PDRMA) with multi-bands operation is presented and investigated. In the proposed structure, a printed fork-like stepped monopole antenna is used for exciting two new modified hemicylindrical dielectric resonators with a great relative permittivity of 80. A narrow medium substrate with a low permittivity is also applied ...

In this paper, we have investigated printed rectangular monopole antennas, which is basically a printed microstrip antenna with etched ground plane for multi-band applications. In particular, we have fabricated and tested printed rectangular monopole antennas for dual-band and penta-band applications. It has been observed that printed rectangular monopole antennas are small in size and simple i...

A design method for a compact square loop antenna fed by a microstrip (MS) line for indoor digital television (DTV) applications is proposed. The proposed antenna consists of a square loop, circular sectors, and an MS line. The square loop combined with circular sectors is printed on one side of a substrate, and a 75 ohm MS line is printed on the other side. The circular sectors are used as a w...

A compact printed dipole antenna with wide impedance bandwidth is proposed in this paper. This antenna consists of a pair of radiation metal arms and a microstrip-to-slotline transition structure. At the end of the feeding slotted line, a beveled slot with stepped connection structure is designed to realize an offset feeding structure for feeding the dipole antenna. By using the beveled offset ...

We have modeled and simulate asymmetric microstrip folded dipole antenna on substrate materials and study the antenna performances. The conventional wire dipole antenna configurations are converted into corresponding microstrip version. The complementary nature of parallel coplanar strip line and waveguide models have been used to model the dipole antenna. The transmission line parameters namel...
