In this paper, we propose DLP(Dual Linear Polarization) array antenna for 3.5 GHz band. The proposed antenna has 1×4 array antenna and design two port network. A cross shape is inserted at the bottom of the patch for impedance matching. The size of each patch antenna is 18.85 mm(W1)×18.85 mm(L1), array antenna is designed on the FR-4 substrate, which is 236.0 mm(W)×60.2 mm(L), thickness (h) 1.6 mm, and the dielectric constant is 4.3. From the fabrication and measurement results, bandwidths of 70 MHz (3.54 to 3.61 GHz) for input port 1, 75 MHz (3.55 to 3.625 GHz) for input port 2 are obtained on the basis of -10 dB return loss and transmission coefficient S21 is under the -20 dB. Also, cross polarization between two port obtained.

RLS a1gorithm is a kind of the adaptive a1gorithms in smart antennas and adapts the weight vector using the difference between the output signal of array antennas and the known training sequence. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm based on the RLS algorithm. It calculates the error signal with reference signal derived from blind scheme. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm yields more user capacity by 67∼74% than other blind adaptive algorithms(LS-DRMTA, LS-DRMTCMA) at the same BER and the beamformer forms null beams toward interference signals and the main beam toward desired signal.

Location service is usually provided by the GPS method using satellites. In the next generation mobile communication systems which use smart antennas, location service can be accomplished using direction of arrival (DOA) estimation techniques. In this paper, we propose a DOA estimation technique for the location service of the next generation mobile communication systems and investigate the validity of the proposed technique through computer simulation. First, DOA estimation problems of distributed sources are considered using vortical and horizontal array processors which are orthogonal to each other. The DOA of the elevation angle is estimated by the vertical array processor and then that of the azimuth angle is estimated by the horizontal array processor. Finally, the procedures of the location service for specific signal sources using three smart antennas are exhibited by computer simulation to show that the proposed DOA estimation technique can be used for the location service in the next generation mobile communication systems.

We have studied the impact and bending characteristics of a dual band antenna (1.575, 2.645 GHz) with composite sandwich construction. Mechanical performance of the antenna can be improved by reinforcing the antenna by sandwiching the planar antenna with layers of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic(CFRP) and glass fiber-reinforced plastic(GFRP) using an adhesive film. According to the ASTM D7137, ASTM C393 and MIL-STD401B, impact and bending test were performed and the S-parameters and gains of the antenna were measured in order to verify electrical and mechanical performance. The maximum contact load and the bending load of the antenna are 4 kN and 400 N and gains of the antenna are 6 dBi and 4.6 dBi in the GPS and DMB bands, respectively. The proposed antenna structure can be applied to surfaces of vehicles.

In this paper, a compact and wideband CLAS(Conformal Load bearing Antenna Structure) was studied using smart skin technique. In order to satisfy the electrical performance of the CLAS antenna, the proposed CLAS antenna is composed of conductive mesh, face-sheet, radiator, honeycomb, housing. Especially, radiator is composed of composite magneto-dielectric material and radiating element etched on the PCB (Printed Circuit Board). The radiating element is inserted into the composite magneto-dielectric material and has sloted Folded LP(Log Periodic) structure. By fabricated composite magneto-dielectric, the resonance frequency is decreased and the impedance matching characteristics is improved. We verified that the antenna has wideband characteristics and compact size using the antenna test results.

In this paper, a TVS diode which is commonly used as a ESD protector in wireless communication devices could cause antenna wireless sensitivity to decrease has been analyzed. When a smartphone doesn't have enough space to place many components, there would be its speaker near antenna area. In order to protect ESD coming through the speaker there also could be a TVS within antenna GND area. Digital audio signal which was sent to speaker and CDMA RF communication signal coupled from antenna was mixed by TVS. And this leakage current running through TVS resulted in decrease of antenna wireless sensitivity. The results of various experiments can be explained using circuit simulation. Following works will give us some insights that can reduce unwanted summation of digital and RF signal due to nonlinearity of ESD protectors.

propose a mobile relay structure for vehicles with multiple antennas, which can increase performances of mobile communication systems and broadcasting systems significantly. Since cell searching and DoA estimation are required for the terminal in hard handover cellular system, joint techniques for cell searching and DoA estimation are proposed to apply beamforming technique for the mobile relay with multiple antennas located at the cell boundary. The proposed cell searching and DoA estimation techniques are evaluated by computer simulation under the environment similar to WiBro system.
