This paper proposes a theoretical analysis of hidden device detection and a design of multiband circular polarization patch array antenna for non-linear junction detector system application. A good axial ratio of circular polarization patch antenna is realized by a new approach that employs inclined slots, two rectangular grooves and a truncated ground for the conventional antenna. A good axial ratio of the 1.5 dB lower is measured by having an asymmetric gap distance between the ground planes of the coplanar waveguide feeding structure. The common ground plane of the linear array has an optimum trapezoidal slot array to reduce the mutual coupling without increasing the distance between the radiators. The higher gain of about 1 dBi is realized by using the novel common ground structure. The measured return loss, gain, and axial ratio of the proposed single radiator, as well as the proposed array antennas, showed a good agreement with the simulated results.

In this paper, the dual band circular polarization patch antenna was designed by using band rejection characteristics of CSRR structure for geostationary satellites. A quadrangular CSRR structure was etched on the ground at the rear of the patch antenna's feed to obtain band rejection characteristics in between the receiving frequency band(1525~1559MHz) and transmission band(1626.5~1660.5MHz), and the corner of the patch antenna was truncated to enable circular polarization. It was confirmed that the resonant frequency of the patch antenna differs according to the size anc location of the CSRR and cirular polarization characteristics with simulation and measurement results. Measurement results shows the gain of about 0.2dB and 1.5dB in the TX and RX band.

In this paper, we propose a design of a triple-band microstrip circular patch antenna. The proposed antenna generates the triple frequency resonance at 1.85GHz(LTE), 2.45GHz(ISM) and 5.5GHz(WLAN). Firstly, we design the dual-band antenna. The dual-band antenna consist of the circular patch, slits, and the slot. The circular patch and slot are designed for dual frequency of 2.45GHz and 5.5GHz, respectively. And then the dual-band antenna is combined with additional arm-shaped structure for the triple-band characteristic. The arm-shaped structure is operated as the dipole. It is designed for lowest frequency of 1.85GHz. Each part of the antenna unites to a new structure. In order to design the proposed antenna automatically and optimally, APSO algorithm is adopted. During APSO, the mismatch of the proposed antenna is resolved. The optimal designed antenna has an acceptable return loss(-10dB) at each bands(i.e, 1.85GHz, 2.45GHz and 5.5GHz).

In this paper, a 3D structure skimmer-shaped circular microstrip antenna is designed, the ends of whose both sides are made as DC(Depressed Carving part) applying perturbation effect to reduce the patch size of microstrip antenna operating at design frequency 1.575 GHz. The result shows its return loss, - 10 dB bandwidth, gain, - 3 dB beamwidth E, H-plane are -26.59 dB, 65 MHz(4.13 %), 4.66 dBd, $79^{\circ},\;87^{\circ}$ respectively. The diameter of the antenna is 85 mm, which is 12.4 % reduced compared to the size(97 mm) of general microstrip patch antenna. Therefore its area reduction is 23.2 %. Furthermore, a linear and circular polarized baseball-shaped circular microstrip antenna is designed to minimize the patch size of the antenna. This structure of antenna operating at the design frequency 1.575 GHz is applied with the optimum RC(Raised Carving part) & DC ratio and an asymptotic line angle. In case of linear polarized baseball-shaped circular microstrip antenna, the patch size of the antenna is 74 mm, which is 41.8 % area reduction compared to general microstrip patch antenna. In case of circular polarized baseball-shaped circular microstrip antenna, the diameter of patch is 82 mm, which is 28.5 % area reduction compare to general microstrip patch antenna linear polarized. We have verified that the perturbation effect can be applied to minimize the circular microstrip antenna.

This paper presents the design of linear and circular polarization baseball- shaped circular microstrip antenna (BCMA) with 3-dimensional structure using perturbation effect to reduce its size, which runs at 1.575GHz frequency bandwidth. As a result, the size of linear polarized antenna could be reduced up to 23.7% in patch diameter and 41.8% in its area. Linear polarized antenna has -26.04dB of return loss, 69MHz(4.38%) of -l0dB bandwidth, 4.51dBd of gain, and its -3dB beamwidth are 99$^{\circ}$ in E-plane, 83$^{\circ}$ in H-plane. Circular polarized antenna has -17.43dB of return loss, 113.7MHz(7.2%) of -l0dB bandwidth, 2dBd of gain, 2dB of axial ratio and its -3dB beamwidth are 87$^{\circ}$, 86$^{\circ}$ x-axis polarized, 80$^{\circ}$, 84$^{\circ}$ y-axis polarized. It has 82mm of diameter, which is 28.5% of linear polarized CMPA. Therefore, in this paper we verified that baseball-shaped 3-dimensional structure of circular microstrip patch antenna applied with perturbation effect is appropriate for miniaturization.

This paper proposes an antenna of the fork type structure that operates in the UWB (Ultra Wide Band) frequency band (3.1 ~ 10.6 GHz). The proposed antenna is attached a circular patch in order to obtain the UWB band characteristics to the fork-type patch antenna. The ground plane is implemented in a arc-shape configuration. The effect of various parameters of the modified fork type radiating patch and partial arc ground plane for UWB operation is investigated. The proposed antenna is made of $34.0{\times}50.0{\times}1.0mm^3$ and is fabricated on the permittivity 4.4 FR-4 substrate. The experiment results shown that the proposed antenna obtained the -10 dB impedance bandwidth 8200 MHz (2.7 ~ 10.9 GHz) covering the UWB bands. This result satisfied the characteristics of ultra-wideband and the proposed antenna will be applicable to an ultra wideband system.

To complement the narrow band characteristics of the microstrip patch antenna, the slot patch antenna was designed for the wide band characteristics. The microstrip slot patch antenna has wide band characteristics when the size of the slots and the feed line shapes are designed accordingly. In this study, various substrates as a epsilon-10, and a epoxy were used to design slot patch antennas. The feed line structure of the circular and square were also designed to have wide band. In the case of slot antennas with the circular patch shapes using epsilon-10 plate 50mm thickness with relative permittivity the 41% bandwidth on the 1.5∼2.28㎓ was shown. When an Epoxy plate 1.Sum thickness with relative permittivity 4.75 is used to construct a circular slot antenna with a square patch form, the frequency band width was obtained 77% as the 1.2∼2.7㎓ frequency range. These results are coincided well with the theoretical results.

A Fabry-Perot cavity (FPC) antenna producing both high-gain and circularly-polarized (CP) behavior is proposed. To increase antenna gain and obtain CP characteristics, a superstrate composed of square patches with a pair of truncated corners is placed above the linearly polarized patch antenna with an approximately half-wavelength distance from the ground plane at the operating frequency. The proposed antenna has the advantages of high gain, a simple design, and an excellent boresight axial ratio over the operating frequency bandwidth. Moreover, used in an FPC antenna, the proposed superstrate converts a linear polarization produced by a patch antenna into a circular polarization. In addition, the cavity antenna produces left-hand circular-polarization and right-hand circular-polarization when a patch antenna inside the cavity generates x-direction and y-direction polarization, respectively. The measured and simulated results verify the performance of the antenna.
