This paper presents the design of a novel integrated mobile antenna for vehicles. The proposed antenna fabricated on a low cost easily available FR4 substrate, which effectively covers both dual band operation. The proposed mobile antenna is a modified G-type patch antenna that can operate in various frequency bands, GSM (880~960 MHz), AMPS (824~894MHz), DCS (1710~1880MHz), PCS (1850~1990MHz), UMTS (1920~2170). Experimental results indicate that the impedance bandwidth (VSWR 1:2.5) of the proposed mobile antenna agree that of the simulation results. It was validated that the configuration can meet the demands of Mobile frequency bands and effectively enhanced the impedance bandwidth to 36.46% for the lower band and 27.84% for the upper band. This paper also presents and discusses the 3D radiation patterns and gains according to the results of the experiment.

This paper investigates wideband dual-polarized microstrip antenna with H-shaped coupling slot. These types of antennas are used to prevent deterioration of transmission quality caused by terminal interference or multipath fading, which usually occur when many terminals are used in limited space such as hot-spot zones. The experimental results show that the impedance bandwidth ($SWR{\leq}2$) of 33.98% and the peak gain of 8.58 dBi (at 2.11 GHz) were obtained by the frequency band under 2.7 GHz. The proposed antenna is designed originally for multiple service bands with simple structure and easily be mass-produced for various commercial applications.

Conventional MIMO system is required to a number of RF chains as much as a number of antennas. If the number of antennas increased then the number of RF chains increased. Therefore, it is difficult to apply conventional MIMO system to mobile terminals with limited power. In this paper, we propose a TDM(time division multiplexing)-based single RF chain MIMO system. The outcome shows that performance of the proposed system is similar to conventional MIMO system using multiple RF chains when STO is corrected by phase angle estimation and the synchronizing signal of received signal. Therefore, it is possible to implement the MIMO-OFDM system of low power and complexity through a single RF chain.

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.

Recently, multi-user massive MIMO (MU-Massive MIMO) network has attracted a lot of attention as a technology to accommodate explosively increasing mobile data traffic. However, the MU-Massive MIMO network causes a tremendous hardware complexity in a base station and computational complexity to select optimal set of users. In this paper, we thus propose a simple algorithm for selecting antennas and users while reducing the hardware and computational complexities simultaneously. The proposed scheme has a computational complexity of $O((N-S_a+1){\times}min(S_a,K))$, which is significantly reduced compared to the complexity of optimal scheme based on Brute-Force searching, $$O\left({_N}C_S_a\sum_{i=1}^{min(S_a,K)}_KC_i\right)$$, where N, $S_a$, and K denote the number of total transmit antennas, the number of selected antennas, and the number of all users, respectively.

This paper presents the design of a novel integrated T-DMB/GPS/Mobile antenna for vehicular application. The T-DMB antenna is designed with a modified meander-type microstrip patch providing linearly a polarized broadside radiation pattern. The GPS antenna is designed with an inserted slot in the patch antenna providing circularly polarized broadside radiation pattern. The Mobile (GSM, AMPS, DCS, PCS, UMTS, etc.) antenna is designed as a modified G-type patch antenna providing multi-band operation. Experimental results indicate that the impedance bandwidth (VSWR 1:2.5) of the proposed T-DMB /GPS/Mobile antenna satisfactorily matches that of the simulation results. The 2D and 3D radiation patterns and gains according to the results of the experiment are also presented and discussed.
