It is proposed that ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) of thin-film ferrites can be utilized to simultaneously improve the radiation efficiency and input impedance matching electrically small antennas (ESAs). To validate concept, role FMR in first derived analytically with an ideal ferrite radiator. was concluded Gilbert damping ferrite, determining quality factor FMR, directly impacts on antenna. A...

The characteristics of a dual-frequency compact antenna, which uses a rectangular microstrip patch with a shorting pin, are studied. Compared with the conventional rectangular patch antenna, this antenna can achieve both a significant reduction of antenna size and a dual-frequency operation with a single feed. A detailed parameter study is performed. The theoretical analysis is based on the fin...

 When an alternating electric current flows through a conductor (wire), Electric-E and Magnetic-H fields are created around the conductor.  If the length of the conductor is very short compared to a wavelength (<< λ/4), the electric and magnetic fields will decrease dramatically within a distance of one or two wavelengths.  However, as the conductor is lengthened, the intensity of the fields...

A novel printed octagonal fractal microstrip antenna with semi-elliptical ground plane is presented for ultra wide band applications. The proposed antenna has a compact size of 20×20×1 mm³. The measured result of the antenna exhibits the ultra wide band characteristics from 2/9 to 14/2 GHz. In this paper, reducing antenna’s size by 35%, the same results were achieved, while small dimension frac...
