Next-generation cellular networks deployment will require systems with broadband capabilities in high-mobility environments. Data rates up to 100 Mbits/s and above, high spectral efficiencies and stronger fading mitigation have to be achieved. Technologies needed to obtain these specifications, include multibeam antenna systems, wideband transceivers, and robust and efficient space-time coding....

A novel compact CPW-fed printed dipole antenna is proposed for dual-band Ultra wide band (UHF) RFID and wireless local area network (WLAN) operations. This antenna consist of two dipole elements and it covers 2.53 GHz Ultra High Frequency (UHF) RFID and 5.2 GHZ WLAN IEEE 802.11 Standards. The return loss, radiation pattern, field pattern, linear and circular polarization components are simulate...

A new design and experimental results of a microstripfed ultra-wideband Fermi antenna at millimeter-wave frequencies are presented. By utilizing a new microstrip-to-CPS balun (or transition), which provides wider bandwidth than conventional planar balun, the design of microstrip-fed Fermi antenna is greatly simplified. The proposed Fermi antenna demonstrates ultra-wideband performance for the f...

The antenna is intended for both near and far fields Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) applications. The meander dipole tag antenna geometry modification is designed for frequency bandwidth increasing. The measured bandwidth of the proposed broadband tag antenna is more than 140 MHz (820–96...

A broadband feeding technique for the uniplanar tapered slot antenna (TSA) is presented. The TSA operates at a center frequency of 6.5 GHz with a 7 GHz bandwidth (107 percent). The antenna and feed are realized with a broadband microstrip-to-slotline transition on a low permittivity high frequency substrate, Rogers RT/Duroid 5880. The input impedance of the system is designed for 50 Ω compatibi...

Recently, the many services for the cellular phone are spread. Therefore, the broadband antenna for handsets is required. In our previous paper [1], the planar folded dipole antenna (PFDA) with a feed line, which consists of two parallel lines has been introduced and its characteristics have been analyzed. As a result, it was found that PFDA with a feed line had a broadband characteristic and t...

Abstract— In this paper, the trapezoidal ring antenna using the conductor-backed CPW is designed and fabricated. The antenna has a broadband characteristic by the coupling effects through inserted the H-shaped parasitic patch. The conductor-backed CPW shows more stable characteristics than the CPW structure when there is occurred the variation between the feed-line and the ground plane in the f...

In this paper a broadband radio frequency identification (RFID) tag antenna for the ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) band is designed. The proposed antenna consists of a first-order Hilbert fractal structure and a spiral structure. In order to ensure the conjugate matching between the tag antenna and the electronic chip, a T-matching structure is employed. The interaction between two radiating element...
