Abstract

Currently, we are living in the world of invisible radio waves with a variety of frequencies. As today's society is rapidly changing to an era of wireless communication, the importances of antenna(especially, small patch antenna) are increasing according to the coming of wireless mobile communication society. In this paper, we design a small patch antenna which can support the functions of DMB and GPS through devices like cellular phone. The main feature and contribution of the designed patch antenna are as follows. First, the patch antenna is designed by HFSS and the ceramic materials for the patch antenna is utilized. Second, we obtain the patch antenna with reduced size and increased profit of reception, and the designed patch antenna can be applied for small devices.

현재 우리는 보이지 않지만 다양한 주파수대의 전파가 세상을 주도하는 시대에 살고 있다. 무선 모바일 통신의 시대로 빠르게 변화하고 있는 지금 안테나(특히, 소형 패치 안테나)의 중요성은 높아져 가고 있다. 본 논문에서는 핸드폰 같은 기기를 통해 DMB, GPS 기능을 가능하게 하는 소형 패치안테나를 제작한다. 설계 제작된 패치안테나의 주요한 특징 및 기여도는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 패치안테나는 HFSS를 이용하여 설계하고 세라믹 소재로 안테나를 제작하였다. 둘째, 네트워크 분석기와 챔버를 이용해 제작된 안테나의 성능테스트 단계를 거쳐 안테나를 소형화하고 수신 이득을 높여 더 많은 소형기기에 접목시킬 수 있도록 하였다.
