Planar Phase Gradient Metasurface Antenna with Low RCS
摘要: A low radar cross section (RCS) planar antenna using phase gradient metasurface is proposed in this paper. The proposed antenna works in the X-band and is fed by a parallel plate waveguide power divider. The designed phase gradient metasurface is coplanar with the feeding structure and couples guided waves in the parallel plate waveguide power divider to radiation waves. According to the generalized reflection law, the proposed metasurface is a frequency scanning antenna and the beam direction can be steered slightly from 16.6° to 13°. The proposed antenna is linearly polarized, and however, the RCS is reduced significantly for arbitrary polarized incident waves. The antenna was simulated, fabricated, and measured. The measurement results confirm well with the simulation results.

摘要: In this paper, a low-profile dual-linear polarized patch antenna composed of two stacked substrates, one air gap layer, and one grounded substrate is proposed. There is a feeding patch element with two excited probes placed on the top side of the grounded substrate, and one parasitic patch element and a 2×2 parasitic array patch elements printed on the lower and upper stacked substrate, respectively. The T- and rectangular slots and T-stubs are employed on/near the orthogonal axis of the patches for the impedance matching and two orthogonal polarizations improvement. Furthermore, four stacked complementary split-ring resonators (CSRRs) are loaded in the two stacked substrates mainly to adjust the impedance matching and port isolation with an induced dual-polarized resonance. Thanks to the stacked patches and CSRRs, an enhanced impedance bandwidth from 1.2% to 7.4% was achieved by the introduced three additional dual-polarized resonances. Simulated results show the antenna has a impedance bandwidth across 2.362-2.544 GHz (fractional bandwidth 7.4%), a maximum realized gain of 10 dBi, and port isolation better than 22 dB over the operational bandwidth. In addition, a low profile of 0.048λ0 (where λ0 is the free-space wavelength at the central frequency) is maintained in the proposed antenna.

摘要: A novel slotted cavity–backed patch antenna with defected ground structure (DGS) is proposed in this paper. This slotted cavity–backed antenna is composed of a square patch with a metal square-loop as radiator, a cross-shaped slotted square patch as defected ground structure (DGS) and a metal backed-cavity. Both of the square patch and metal square-loop have four square slots. Simulated results shows that the impedance bandwidth with a return loss better than 10dB is 6MHz at 420MHz and the impedance bandwidth is 10MHz at 480MHz. The antenna exhibits stable radiation pattern over the operation frequency band. The profile and size of the proposed RHCP antenna are 1.0mm (0.001λ0) and 77mm×77mm (0.12λ0×0.12λ0), both of which are extremely small.

Design and implementation of a low profile polarization-reconfigurable transmitarray with linear polarized feed
摘要: A novel polarization-reconfigurable transmitarray with linear polarized feed is presented in this letter. Each element in the proposed transmitarray consists of two cascaded cross dipoles to achieve more than 310° of linear phase with transmission magnitude equal to or better than 0.8 dB. The proposed unit cell has a thickness of 0.22λ0, which leads to a low profile transmitarray compared with those conventional designs. The element behavior of low transmission loss has resulted in higher antenna efficiency. By properly rotating the feed antenna around the center and selecting the x- and y-dimension of each element, the proposed transmitarray can generate radiation patterns with different polarization states, including left-handed circular polarization (LHCP), right-handed circular polarization (RHCP), and linear polarization(LP). For the purpose of validation, a double-layer center-fed 11 × 11-element transmitarray prototype is manufactured and tested at X-band. Measurement results demonstrate the designed transmitarray realize both high gain performance and multiple polarization operation.

A high gain miniaturised patch antenna with an epsilon near zero superstrate
摘要: In this paper, a miniaturized patch antenna (MPA) with Zero Index Metamaterial (ZIM) as Superstrate at 518MHz is designed and fabricated. The proposed method is utilized for retrieving the effective properties, i.e., impedance, refractive index, as well as the permittivity, and permeability of the unit cell. We have investigated the effect of distance between the antenna and the Superstrate on performance of the antenna. Moreover, the performance of the antenna is evaluated by both simulations and measurements. The results of our study have shown more directional and higher gain patch antennas. Also, a good agreement between the measured and the simulation values is found. It is demonstrated that the gain of antenna, having the ZIM Superstrate, is much higher compared to the one without the ZIM superstrate. Furthermore, the mean value of the gain for the proposed Metamaterial antenna (which is Superstrate-based) is considerably improved from -1.9 to 3.97 dBi comparing to the patch antenna alone. In fact, the directivity of the antenna is dramatically improved based on the zero refraction properties of the Metamaterial.

摘要: A low-profile dual-polarized MIMO antenna array with high isolation is proposed in this paper. As is shown in this paper, the unit of the presented MIMO antenna array is two crossed dipole antennas. The height of the dipole antenna is just 10mm. It is a low profile because of the application of the AMC surface. As a result, the proposed MIMO antenna array can offer an impedance band from 2.50 GHz to 2.68 GHz when the VSWR is lower than 1.5. At the same time, The MIMO antenna array also presents great performance in radiation patterns, with the gain of 9dBi and the isolation between the two ports can reach 25dB. The proposed MIMO antenna array can be applied to the base stations.

Dual-Linear Polarized Phased Array with 9:1 Bandwidth and 60° Scanning off Broadside
摘要: We present for the first time a novel dual-linear polarized tightly coupled dipole array (TCDA) with integrated balun operating across a 9:1 bandwidth, from 2GHz to 18GHz. This dual-linear polarized array employs a tightly coupled dipole topology and scans down to 60° from boresight. The overall geometry consists of cross-located tightly coupled dipoles integrated with a folded Marchand balun that serves as an impedance transformer to achieve a wideband feeding network. Notably, the traditional dielectric superstrate is replaced with double layers of frequency selective surfaces (FSS) to enable scanning down to 60° in both E-, H-, and diagonal (D-) planes across the entire band. The design achieves VSWR<3 across 2 to 18GHz at broadside. This dual-polarized array is also demonstrated to have a good polarization isolation of -20dB for most of the band. The array’s total height is less than 12mm (λlow/10). The design is validated through fabrication and testing of an 11×11 prototype. Measurements of this prototype are presented and are in good agreement with simulations.

A Low-Profile and High-Gain CP Patch Antenna with Improved AR Bandwidth via Perturbed Ring Resonator
摘要: A low-profile circularly-polarized (CP) patch antenna with improved axial ratio (AR) bandwidth and high gain is proposed in this letter. The antenna consists of a pin-loaded patch and a probe-fed ring resonator beneath the patch radiator. On the one hand, the radiative patch dominates the radiation, and the loading of shorting pins facilitates its high gain due to enlarged radiating area at resonance. On the other hand, the ring resonator with perturbation produces two additional split degenerate modes, which not only widen the bandwidth of magnitude, but also generate the required quadrature phase shift for CP radiation. The working mechanism is presented with an equivalent circuit model, allowing us to easily demonstrate how the ring resonator and patch radiator work together to effectively widen AR bandwidth. With the proposed method, stable high gain of about 11 dBic has been realized over an AR bandwidth of 6% for a single-fed CP patch antenna with profile of 0.05λ0 at 2.33 GHz.

Low-profile wideband Fabry-Perot resonator antenna using artificial magnetic conductor surface
摘要: A low-profile, high gain Fabry-Perot Resonator antenna with a wide operation bandwidth (BW) is presented in this paper. The proposed design consists of an ellipse-shaped dipole as a wideband radiating source, which is reflected by an artificial magnetic conductor ground plane to achieve low-profile structure. The antenna gain can be significantly enhanced by the use of a half-wavelength-thick dielectric slab as a partial reflecting surface. Additionally, this dielectric slab also contributes to improving the radiation pattern characteristics of the proposed design, especially in the high frequency region. A final prototype with an overall size of 1.2λL × 1.2λL × 0.4λL (λL is free-space wavelength at the lowest frequency of 3-dB gain BW) has been fabricated to validate the concept. The measured results show that the proposed antenna yielded a wide 3-dB gain BW of approximately 50.3% with a peak gain of 14 dBi and impedance matching BW of 48.9%.

[IEEE 2018 7th International Conference on Computer and Communication Engineering (ICCCE) - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (2018.9.19-2018.9.20)] 2018 7th International Conference on Computer and Communication Engineering (ICCCE) - CPW-Fed Patch Antenna with Reflecting Metasurface Covering for WLAN and WiMAX Applications
摘要: A coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed multiband patch antenna with the integration reflecting metasurface covering has been designed and performance characteristics are critically analyzed. The proposed low profile antenna can offers the wireless communications services for WLAN and WiMAX applications. The rectangular shaped patch antenna consists of pair of C-, L- and splitted-T shape slotted radiator, and 2D reflective metasurface covering at the back of patch which is separated by dielectric layer of substrate. The details of the antenna design structure and performance criteria are discussed through numerical simulation using full-wave electromagnetic simulator. The simulation results shows that by employing the reflecting metasurface covering, the -10dB impedance bandwidth has considerably increased than the typical CPW-fed patch antenna: from 440 MHz to 570 MHz (29%), 390 MHz to 480 MHz (23%) and 900 MHz to 1060 MHz (18%) for three different operating bands centered at 2.5, 3.5 and 5.5 GHz respectively. The simulated result shows the antenna with RMC integration achieves peak gain of 6.56 dBi, 6.43 dBi and 6.97 dBi with average gain of 6.45 dBi, 6.27 dBi and 6.82 dBi at three operating bands respectively which are higher than the typical patch antenna.
