Polarization Reconfigurable Corner Truncated Square Microstrip Array Antenna
摘要: In this paper, a simple 2 × 2 polarization reconfigurable planar microstrip array antenna is presented. It is based on electrical switching technology using PIN diodes. Each element of the array is excited with the aid of the corporate feed technique. Each element of the proposed structure consists of a corner truncated square patch connected to parasitic triangular conductors by means of PIN diodes. The array element is configured to facilitate linear polarization (LP), right-hand circular polarization (RHCP) or left-hand circular polarization (LHCP) by means of 4 independently biased PIN diodes. The proposed antenna is designed and simulated using electromagnetic simulation software CST Microwave Studio. In order to experimentally validate the design, a prototype is fabricated on a 1.6 mm thick RT Duroid substrate of relative permittivity εr = 2.2. The performance of the antenna is validated experimentally using 16 PIN diodes. The simulation and measured results for all the polarization states of the array antenna are found to be in good agreement. The measured results have established the polarization reconfigurable ability of the antenna for 5.7–6.0 GHz operating band. The proposed antenna is suitable for C-band point-to-point communication applications.

摘要: In this paper, a unique broadband circularly polarized (CP) array antenna by modified feed network is presented. Employing wide band CP semi-fractal aperture coupled structure causes the creation of innovation at CP antenna array with emphasis on reducing of radar cross section (RCS). The 3 dB axial-ratio of the array extends to approximately 1.23 GHz with an impedance bandwidth of 24.77%. An acceptable agreement between the simulation and measured results validates the proposed design.

Air-Filled Substrate Integrated Waveguide Fed Magneto-Electric Dipole Antenna Array for Millimeter-Wave Applications
摘要: A substrate integrated magneto-electric (ME) dipole antenna array with an improved radiation efficiency is presented in the 28-GHz band. A novel full-corporate air-filled substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) feed network with low losses is designed and realized by utilizing the low-cost printed circuit board (PCB) facilities. Different from most previous millimeter-wave planar arrays consisting of 2 × 2 sub-arrays, an SIW fed sub-array with a larger size of 2 × 4 is investigated to simplify the configuration of the major portion of the array feed network, which is of importance to the successful realization of the air-filled SIW feed network. An 8 × 8 array prototype with a four-layered geometry is fabricated and measured to verify the design. The array has an impedance bandwidth of 25.9%, a gain up to 26 dBi and stable radiation patterns over the operating band. Benefitted from the absence of the significant dielectric loss in the feed network, a high antenna efficiency of 80% is also achieved. The proposed design provides an effective method to improve the achievable gain and efficiency characteristics of the substrate-integrated arrays with a large size that are attractive for millimeter-wave wireless applications.

[IEEE 2018 IEEE International Conference on Computational Electromagnetics (ICCEM) - Chengdu, China (2018.3.26-2018.3.28)] 2018 IEEE International Conference on Computational Electromagnetics (ICCEM) - A Wideband Polarization Reconfigurable Antenna Using Quasi-Cross-Shaped Coupling Slot
摘要: A quasi-cross-shaped coupling slot antenna with a Wilkinson power divider network is proposed to realize the wideband linear polarization (CP), left-hand circular polarization (LHCP) and right-hand circular polarization (RHCP). The quasi-cross-shaped coupling slot generates two orthogonal linear polarization with high isolation. Four pairs of PIN diodes are used in four branches of the Wilkinson power divider network to alter the current flow path so as to generate a phase difference of 0° or ±90° and achieve the polarization reconfiguration. The results show that the proposed antenna has a 10-dB impedance bandwidth of 2.80- 3.54GHz (0.74GHz, 23.3%) for LP and 2.82-3.49GHz (0.67GHz, 21.2%) for CP. The 3-dB axial ratio (AR) bandwidth is 2.92- 3.43GHz (0.51GHz, 16.1%) for LHCP and 2.88-3.43GHz (0.55GHz, 17.4%) for RHCP. In addition, the antenna achieves a high average realized a gain of 9.1dBi.

[Institution of Engineering and Technology 12th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP 2018) - London, UK (9-13 April 2018)] 12th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP 2018) - A Circularly Polarized Metasurface Antenna
摘要: The concept of metasurface antennas based on electrically small resonators was recently introduced and has opened a new window into the design of high gain antennas. In the earlier work, a linearly polarized metasurface antenna was designed and fabricated. In this work, we present the design of a circularly polarized metasurface antenna. An array of 8 × 8 cross-shaped resonators was designed to operate at 3 GHz with an overall array size of 12 cm × 12 cm (1.2 (cid:540) × 12 (cid:540)). By feeding the resonators with appropriate phases, we achieved circular polarization with a high gain of approximately 12 dBi.
