MIMO systems have become an essential part in many communications networks and Long Term Evolution (4G) mobile communication systems. Mobile handsets using lower band of LTE (LTE700 band) require antennas of reduced size that can be adapted to the limited space in the handset. This paper presents the design, optimization and implementation of two meandered-line PIFA antennas working as an MIMO ...

In this paper, we have designed the patch array antennas with the slots capable of working in millimeter-wave radar system. The designed array antennas have multi-band characteristics at 77GHz. As a result, this paper is proposed the possibility of prototyping by design and analysis of microstrip array antennas for mm-wave radar as using a patch arrays with U-shaped slots.

In this paper, a stage wise realization of compact Bluetooth — UWB dual-band diversity antenna with WiMAX and WLAN band-notch characteristics is presented. The proposed structure consists of two co-planar semicircular dual band-notch monopole antennas, mounted with planar spiral. Individual antenna configuration provides an impedance bandwidth (VSWR < 2) for dualband i.e., both Bluetooth and UW...

Modern military uses of antennas have presented new challenges to the antenna designer. Only a decade ago, specific band antennas, or tall whips, met the needs of most communications, electronic warfare (EW) and surveillance applications. But with new needs and transceiver technologies, antennas have new challenges: wideband; small; and agile platforms, for software-defined radio (SDR) and mode...

In this paper, periodic structures are investigated in antenna design for wireless applications. These antennas were compared with CRLH miniaturization method. Three different models of patch antenna with coaxial feed on EBG ground, metamaterial substrate or EBG/AMC structure have been presented here. Also two compact dual-band antennas have been designed and fabricated based on CRLH techniques...

A compact dual-band antenna made of high dielectric constant substrate is studied. Embedding a higher dielectric cylindrical inside the substrate host cylindrical enhances the dual-band behaviour. The first part displays the characteristics of single CRDA as return loss, bandwidth and radiation pattern, then, the second part describes the aim of using an antenna, composed by the arrangement of ...

The Internet of things (IoT) refers to uniquely identifiable objects and their virtual representations in an Internet-like structure to be managed and inventoried by computers. Radio-frequency identification (RFID)-a prerequisite for the IoT-is an automatic way for data transaction in object identification and is used to improve automation, inventory control and checkout operations. An RFID sys...
