An optimized design for the spanner shape regular hexagonal monopole (RHM) patch antennas has been reported to yield ultra wide band (UWB) impedance bandwidth. Impedance and radiation characteristics are presented and discussed. From the results, it has been observed that, the impedance bandwidth, defined by 10 dB return loss, can reach a value of 8.63GHz. A rectangular slit in the radiating pa...

Wepresent the possibilities of 3Ddirect-write dispensing in the fabrication of passiveUHFRFIDgraphene tags on a textile substrate. In our method, the graphene tag antenna is deposited directly on top of the IC strap, in order to simplify the manufacturing process by removing one step, that is, the IC attachment with conductive glue. Our wireless measurement results confirm that graphene RFID ta...

Design of a simple and compact microstrip-fed printed monopole antenna (PMA) for applications in wireless local area network (WLAN) and radio frequency identification (RFID) is presented. The dual-band operation is achieved from the 9-shaped folded antenna which is printed on a non-conductor backed dielectric. Measured percentage impedance bandwidth of the PMA at the center frequencies of 2.43 ...

A dual-band printed dipole antenna with integrated balun feed is given in this paper. First, the fork-shaped slot is etched on the arms of the printed dipole antenna to achieve the dual-band operation with resonances at WLAN bands. The radiating element without balun is optimized and operates at 2.4 GHz (2180–2750MHz) and 5.2GHz (5040 MHz–5480MHz) where return loss is less than −10 dB. In order...

The presentation will give an overview of ONERA recent research work in the field of wideband printed antenna arrays. A special focus will be given to the comprehensive analysis and design optimization of multilayered printed arrays for wide bandwidth and wide scan angle operation.

In this paper, a miniaturized printed dipole antenna with the V-shaped ground is proposed for radio frequency identification (RFID) readers operating at the frequency of 2.45 GHz. The principles of the microstrip balun and the printed dipole are analyzed and design considerations are formulated. Through extending and shaping the ground to reduce the coupling between the balun and the dipole, th...

This work presents a solution-processed gravure printed antenna on robust transparent nanopaper for potential Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) application. The nanopaper, having excellent dimensional stability in water, was obtained by glutaraldehyde treatment with hydrochloric (HCl) acid as a catalyst. For the first time, a device consisting of RF components for RFIDs was printed on stabl...
