In this paper, a design method to obtain a band rejection characteristic in the 2.4-2.484 GHz WLAN band is studied for a series-fed dipole pair (SDP) antenna operating in the band of 1.7-2.7 GHz for mobile communication base station applications. The band rejection characteristic is achieved by inserting U-shaped slots on the coplanar strip line connecting the two dipole elements of the SDP antenna. The effects of the location and dimension of the slots on the band rejection characteristics are examined. The optimized SDP antenna with WLAN band rejection is fabricated on an FR4 substrate and the experimental results show that the antenna has a desired band rejection performance with a frequency band of 1.65-2.78 GHz (51.0%) for a VSWR < 2, and a rejection band of 2.39-2.54 GHz.

A WLAN dual band dipole antenna with parasitic elements and a reflector is presented for high gain operation. The parasitic elements are used for practical application and high gain operation of the radiation pattern at the WLAN dual band. The proposed antenna consists of three layers, and has dimensions of $74mm{\times}40 mm{\times}31.4mm$. From the experimental results, the achieved impedance bandwidths were 1035 MHz (2.031-3.066 GHz) and 1119 MHz (5.008-6.127 GHz), respectively. The measured maximum gain at each WLAN band was 6.69 dBi and 7.81 dBi, respectively.

This paper presents the basic characteristics of the beam tilting dipole antenna element in which one reactance element is used for the impedance matching at the feed point. The radiation pattern is tilted by the properly determined driving point position, and the loading reactance is used to obtain forced resonance without great changes in tilt angle. The numerical results demonstrate that the reactance element should be loaded in the region where the driving point is placed to obtain forced resonance of the antenna with little changes in beam tilt angle. In case the proposed forced resonant beam tilting antenna with $0.8\lambda$ length is driven at $0.2\lambda$ from the center, the main beam tilt angle o.5 57.7 degrees, the highest power gain of 8.6 dB are obtained.

In this paper, a design method for a broadband planar dipole antenna for the terrestrial digital television (DTV) reception is studied. The proposed antenna is an asymmetrical planar dipole consists of a rectangular patch with an embedded t-shaped slit, and the antenna shape is printed on a side of an FR4 substrate. The effects of geometrical parameters on the antenna performance are examined, and the parameters are adjusted to operate in the DTV frequency band of 470-806 MHz. The prototype antenna is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a size of $260mm{\times}30mm$. The performance of the antenna is tested experimentally to verify the results of this study.

This paper presents a comparison of antenna factor characteristics computed by the Method of Moments(MoM) and the electromotive force(EMF) method for a calculable dipole antenna with a hybrid balun. An expression for the antenna factor is formulated using the concept of power mismatch loss. The input impedance and effective length of the antenna, which are in the formula of the antenna factor, are calculated using the two methods. The results show that the antenna factors are agreed within 0.24 dB, although the maximum difference between the input impedances obtained from the two methods is about 17 ${\Omega}$.

In this paper, a dual band antenna with the operating frequency in HF and UHF band was proposed. The antenna structure consists of three spiral turns coil in the bottom side to generate the HF frequency of 13.56 MHz. In the top of the antenna, an inverted-spiral dipole structure is used to create the UHF frequency of 922 MHz. The dual band antenna was optimized to reduce size with $80mm{\times}40mm{\times}0.8mm$ dimension. The antenna presents the omnidirectional characteristic with high gain. To validate the theoretical design, the antenna was simulated using FR-4 substrate and verified the simulation results.

In this paper, a new type of Yagi-Uda antenna that operates in the terahertz frequencies is designed. The proposed Yagi-Uda antenna can obtain high input resistance of approximately $2000{\Omega}$ at the resonance frequency by using a full-wavelength dipole instead of a half-wavelength dipole as the driver element. The current leakage into the bias line was minimized by applying the photonic bandgap structure to the bias line. By designing the antenna on a thin substrate, the impedance lowering of an antenna caused by the relative dielectric constant of the substrate was prevented and the end-fire radiation pattern which is the original radiation characteristic of the Yagi-Uda antenna could be obtained. We expect that the proposed Yagi-Uda antenna can achieve increased terahertz output power by improving the impedance mismatching problem with the photomixer.

In this paper, an EBG(Electromagnetic BandGap) resonator antenna with a stripline type FSS(Frequency Selective Surface) superstrate for PCS-band base station antennas is proposed. The characteristics of resonant frequency and -3dB bandwidth of a unit cell of a superstrate are first analyzed by varing several design parameters such as a strip width and a unit cell width in order to design an EBG resonator antenna satisfying the required antenna gain and bandwidth for PCS-band base station antennas. Among various unit cell shapes, strip dipole and stripline are considered and their characteristics are compared. It was found that a resonant length of the EBG resonator antenna becomes smaller when the stripline shape is used and the control of the bandwidth is also much easier. By using the unit cell simulation results, planar and cylindrical EBG resonator antennas at PCS-band are designed.

In this paper, an antenna which has dipole-like radiation pattern and low profile is proposed. The antenna is composed of four elements slot array based on L-shaped 0.43 $\lambda_g$ slot element. It presents a omni-directional radiation patter in the azimuth plane and has a null toward broad-side direction. In the design, a small mono-pole antenna which acts as a large capacitance element, combined with the partially removed ground plane by four L-shaped slots. As a result, these structure act as a LC resonator for radiation. The measured result shows, the impedance bandwidth(VSWR$\leq$2) of the proposed antenna is 60 MHz(2.35$\sim$2.41 GHz). The measured maximum radiation gain and efficiency of proposed antenna is 0.02 dBi, 56.7 % at center frequency 2.38 GHz, respectively. The proposed antenna can be applied to wireless tan access point system.
