A compact and broadband balun is designed using a conventional right-handed transmission line (RHTL) and a left-handed transmission line (LHTL) with lumped elements only. The proposed balun maintains a phase difference of $180^{\circ}{\pm}12^{\circ}$ at the output ports for the frequency range of 1.27 GHz-2.69 GHz. Nevertheless, the circuit size is merely $9.5mm{\times}12.7mm$. To verify the performance of the proposed balun, we attached it to a dipole-type antenna and observed that the return loss is greater than 10 dB for the frequency range between 1.86 GHz and GHz. The radiation pattern and peak gain are similar to those of the dipole antenna with a conventional balun.

The Ku band that has been using for the satellite communication and broadcasting would be changed to K/Ka bands. The satellite system requires the antenna structure to fabricate low loss and small antenna that is able to be integrated with other Rf circuits for both Rx and Tx. So we should design it with dual feed antennas at K/Ka bands, high isolation between two different feeds and broadband circular polarization. This paper proposes the LTCC(Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic) process for integration with other Rf circuits and the Axial mode of the helical antenna to satisfy those requirements.

The ultra-wideband (UWB) spectrum available for commercial applications has offered us an opportunity to achieve high-speed wireless communications and high-accuracy location applications. As one of key research areas in UWB technology, a lot of innovative broadband and miniaturization techniques for UWB antennas have been greatly invented and developed for years. This paper reviews the development of UWB antenna design in the past decade. Starting with a brief introduction of the specific requirements and promising applications of UWB systems, the unique design challenges of UWB antennas are highlighted. Next, the important milestones of UWB antenna designs are briefed. After that, a variety of planar UWB antennas invented for broadband operation, miniaturization, and multiple functions are introduced. Last, the comments on the development of UWB antennas in future are shared.

In this paper, a wideband monopole antenna with ring loop by modified ground plane is presented. The proposed antenna consist of monopole antenna, ring loop by ground plane. This antenna is fed CPW-fed and wide slot antenna of a novel structure for broadband characteristics is proposed. To enhance the impedance bandwidth of the wide slot antenna, we proposed the wide slot structure with CPW-fed which is combined with four ${\lambda}/2$ rectangular radiation modified monopole and inductively coupled. The measured impedance bandwidth is about 2.5 GHz(3.65~6.15 GHz) then less -10 dB.

In this paper, we proposed a broadband planar Yagi-Uda dipole antenna with dual tapered balance and unblance (balun) by CPW-fed to CPS. This antenna consisted of driver, three directors, dual tapered balun and CPS-fed to CPS. The fed structure of CPW-fed to CPS had a benefit points much simpler than other planar Yagi-Uda antennas and provided design more flexibility in arranging the reflector. The proposed antenna is introduced dual tapered balun to improve the impedance matching. It balun is inserted between the CPW-ground and the CPS. The proposed antenna is exhibited the bandwidth of 4.78 GHz (1.94~6.72 GHz) (S11 < -10 dB) and the gain of 4.9~7.2 dBi within that bandwidth. This antenna will applicate wireless communication.

본 논문에서는 5-10GHz 광대역 운용에 적합한 quasi-Yagi안테나를 설계하는 방법에 대해 연구하였다. Yagi 안테나는 단락종단된 마이크로스트립선로로 급전되며, 내장된 Balun 회로에 의해 정합되도록 하였다. FR4기판(비유전율 4.4, 두께 0.8mm)상에 제작된 안테나의 특성을 실험한 결과 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션에 의한 예상치와 잘 일치함을 관찰하였다.

본 논문에서는 항공기에서 사용되는 방향 탐지용 안테나가 항공기에 장착 될 경우, 항공기 구조, 회절과 반사에 의한 안테나 성능 변화를 분석하였다. 방향 탐지용 안테나는 항공기 전자전 체계(Electronic Warfare System)의 방향 탐지(DF : Direction Finding) 장치에서 레이더 위협 신호를 수신하는 안테나이다. 최근 항공기에 다양한 안테나가 장착되므로 탑재된 안테나 성능 해석 및 안테나 간섭 분석 등의 다양한 해석이 요구되고 있다. 본문에서는 모사된 항공기에 50% 대역폭을 가지는 광대역 방향 탐지용 안테나를 장착하여 전자파 해석을 진행하였고, 안테나의 단일 성능과 항공기에 탑재된 성능을 비교하여 방향 탐지 성능을 분석하였다. 분석된 방향 탐지 정확도는 $6.47^{\circ}$ RMS를 가지며 항공기 방향 탐지용 안테나로 적합함을 예측하였다.

This paper discusses the characteristics and effects of dielectric inner-supports on discone antenna for broadband RF test chamber, and the verification has been performed by simulation. Several design parameters such as the thickness of the gap support, the position of the side support, and the thickness of the side support has been analyzed. The thickness of the gap support affected the reflection coefficient. An effect of the offset of the side support from the center was slight below 3 GHz and significant above 3 GHz. The thickness of the side support did not affect the reflection coefficient or the gain much. The performance of the fabricated discone antenna was in good agreement with the simulated results. This investigation of a dielectric support effects could be used to design a commercial discone antenna for broadband RF test chamber, focusing on electrical performance and mechanical stability.
