In this paper, we designed and implemented an ultra wideband (UWB) antenna with 5G mobile communication and WLAN bands rejection characteristics. The proposed antenna consists of a planar radiation patch with two slots, parasitic elements on both sides of the strip line and ground plane on back side. The upper n-type slot contributes for 5G mobile communication band (3.42~3.70 GHz) rejection and the lower n-type slot contributes for wireless local area network (WLAN) band (5.15~5.825 GHz) rejection. Parasitic elements were used in order to satisfy the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) less than or equal to 2.0 for UWB band (3.10~10.60 GHz) except two rejection bands. The Ansoft's high frequency structure simulator (HFSS) was used for antenna design and simulations. The simulated antenna showed dual rejection bands of 3.36~3.71 GHz and 5.13 ~ 5.92 GHz in UWB band, and measured result for the implemented antenna showed dual rejection bands of 3.40~3.72 GHz and 5.08~5.858 GHz. Simulated and measured VSWRs are less than or equal to 2.0 for all UWB band except dual rejection bands.

In this paper, the design for a PCS base station antenna which is using broadband method by a stacked structure has been studied. The sensitive parameters, such as the parasitic elements, the height of air layer between the upper and lower patch, and the variation of feed point, of the microstrip antenna that has stacked structure in a characteristics variation situation are classified and the characteristics has been investigated through the simulations. A designed antenna has following characters. Impedance bandwidth is Z57.5MHz(VSWR${\leq}$2), horizontal beamwidth is $64.1^{\circ}$, and gain is 14.7dBi. Therefore, it is confirmed the characteristics is good. In this paper, through the designing of a stacked microstrip antenna, we has investigated the availability for Korea PCS base station antenna.

The effect of a finite substrate size on the radiation characteristics of a two-element linear E-plane array antenna using microstrip patch antennas is investigated. The average active element pattern characteristics of two-element E-plane array antennas printed on different dielectric constant substrates with various substrate sizes and element spacings are analyzed. Using the average active element pattern, the radiation pattern characteristics of the array antenna versus scan angle is analyzed. The simulation results show that the diffracted fields of surface waves from substrate edges have a significant effect on the radiation characteristics of a 2-element E-plane array antenna. The distance between the center of patch antenna and the substrate edges on the E-plane for the enhancement of radiation characteristics of the array antenna is about $0.35{\lambda}_0$.

In this paper, a new composite electromagnetic bandgap(EBG) structure using magnetic materials is proposed for simultaneous switching noise(SSN) suppression in the high-speed digital circuits. The proposed EBG structure has periodic unit cells of square-patches connected by spiral-shaped bridges. The magnetic materials are located on the unit cells of spiral-shaped EBG. The real part of the permeability shifts bandgap to the lower frequency region due to the increased effective inductance. The imaginary part of the permeability has magnetic loss that decreases parasitic LC resonance peaks from between the unit cells. As a result, the proposed structure has the lower cut-off frequency compared with conventional EBG structure and -30 dB SSN suppression bandwidth from 175 MHz to 7.7 GHz. The proposed structure is expected to improve the power integrity and reduce the size of the EBG power plane.

In this paper, applying the REC model which characterizes the coupling between the radiating edges to two coupled rectangular microstrip patch antenna, we obtain scattering parameters $\mid$ $S_{11}$ $\mid$ and $\mid$ $S_{12}$ $\mid$for the various coupling separations, Se=0.5mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, and 2.0mm, The calculated values are compared with the measured values. For the rectangular microstrip patch antenna with a parasitic element which is gap-coupled to the radiating edges of the rectangular patch, calculated return losses using the REC model are compared with measrued values. Here, the each microstrip antenna is fed by a 50 microstrip line. The purpose of the paper is to compare a 50$\Omega$ microstrip line fed case with a coaxial fed case treated in Ref.

In this thesis, a two-dimensional active phased array antenna without phase shifter is studied for two-dimensional beam scanning. A designed two-dimensional oscillator-type active array antenna, radiation elements and the oscillator circuits were combined with via-hole and coupled by slot on the opposite ground plane. The operating characteristics are analyzed and experimentally demonstrated , The two-dimensional $4\times4$ elements were designed for the proper coupling strengths and coupling phases by adjusting the width, length and offset position of slot-lines. The fabricated active phased array antenna shows the beam shift characteristics capable of scanning from $-17^{\circ}$ to $18^{\circ}$ with respect to broadside in one dimension, from $-5^{\circ}$ to $10^{\circ}$ in two dimension. The experimental results show that it is possible to use the oscillator-type active phased array antenna as a two-dimensional planar array antenna.

In this paper, we propose a microstrip slot antenna that works in Bluetooth, Zigbee, WiMAX and WLAN frequency bands($2.4{\sim}5.825\;GHz$). To get the wide bandwidth from the microstrip antenna proposed, we insert a pair of parastic strips along the feed line on the FR-4 dielectric substance(${\varepsilon}_r=4.8$). Furthermore, a simple geometrical rotation with quadrilateral slot is designed to maximize the bandwidth and to gain a wider frequency band than the conventional rectangular slot antenna. A additional design of the loop type is added to a cactus-shaped patched for 2.4 GHz ISM frequency band. The total measured bandwidth of the antenna is from 2.4 GHz to 6 GHz and the maximum gains of the antenna are 3.82 dBi, 4.48 dBi, 6.41 dBi and 6.65 dBi at the frequencies of 2.4 GHz, 3.5 GHz, 5.25 GHz and 5.77 GHz.
