In this paper, we propose a optimal design using the Evolution Strategy of a high gain $4\times4$ array antenna that have the resonant frequency of a 19.05GHz with 18.86GHz~19.26GHz bandwidth. The proposed array antenna structure is designed to be allocated equally electric power by microstrip patch power splitter. Thus the optimal array antenna with power splitter are determined by using an optimal design program based on the evolution strategy. To achieve this, an interface program between a commercial EM analysis tool and the optimal design program is constructed for implementing the evolution strategy technique that seeks a global optimum of the objective function through the iterative design process consisting of variation and reproduction. The simulation result of $4\times4$ array antenna is confirmed that the Gain is 19.36 dBi at resonance frequency 19.05GHz.

We investigate the characteristics of a wideband and high-gain cavity-backed slot antenna in terms of the reflection coefficients, radiation patterns, and gain. A cavity-backed slot antenna structure includes baffles, reflectors, and thick ground planes. The measured gain and bandwidth of a 10-dB return loss in a cavity-backed $2{\times}2$ array slot antenna with $h_1=2 $mm, d=2 mm are 15.5 dBi and nearly 27%, respectively, at 42 GHz. Baffles and reflectors are used to increase antenna gain, thus reducing the coupling among the slots on the thick ground plane.

In this paper we developed Composite-Smart-Structures(CSS) using sandwich structure composed of Glass/Epoxy laminates and Nomex honeycomb and microstrip antenna. Transmission/reflection theory shows that antenna performances can be improved due to multiple reflection by Glass/Epoxy facesheet, and honeycomb is used for air gap between antenna and facesheet. Stacked radiating patches are used for the wideband. Facesheet and honeycomb thicknesses are selected considering both wideband and high gain. Measured electrical performances show that CSS has wide bandwidth over $10\%$ and higher gain by 3.5dBi than initially designed antenna, and no doubt it has excellent mechanical performances by sandwich effect given by composite laminates and honeycomb core. The CSS concept can be extended to give a useful guide for manufacturers of structural body panels as well as antenna designers, promising innovative future communication technology.

The low channels with frequency range of 54~88MHz and the high channels with frequency range if 174~216 MHz are in use for TV broadcasting in Korea. Since the ratio of the highest frequency to the lowest frequency is 4 to 1, only a logarithmic periodic antenna cou1d cover such an wide frequency range. But, this log-periodic antenna should be big in size. Studies have been done on an antenna of small size with reasonable gain which combines through a channel filter a LPD antenna if low channel with boom length of 2m and a LPD antenna of high channel with boom length of 1.8m. The whole antenna is connected to feeder line through a talun. Experiment shows that the gain of low and high channels is 7 dB and 9 dB respectively, which are lower than theoretical values br nomore than ldB. The difference seemed to come from slight impedance mismatches between antennas and feeder lines, loss in the filter and measurement errors.

This paper is presented on the antenna design for notepc platform. We present the antenna with combination of electric-magnetic radiator for dual-band Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) service and a High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) service. Due to the limited antenna space in notepc platform, the antennas for various wireless communication service should be located at a very small area. In this paper, the magnetic-type radiator works for high frequency band (1.7 - 2.1 GHz) application and the electric-type radiator works for low frequency band (820 - 960 MHz) application. This combination produces wide-band characteristics in the high frequency band. Simulation and experimental results of input impedance and gain characteristics of the proposed antenna are presented. There are good agreements between the simulated and measured S11 and gain values.

In this paper, a high gain, broadband planar vivaldi antenna (PVA) by utilizing a broadband stripline feed is developed for wireless communication for IoT systems. The suggested antenna is designed by attaching a tapered-slot construction to a typical vivaldi antenna, which improves the antenna's radiation properties. The PVA is constructed on a low-cost FR4 substrate. The dimensions of the patch are 1.886λ₀×1.42λ₀×0.026λ₀, dielectric constant Ɛ_r=4.4, and loss tangent δ=0.02. The width of the feed line is reduced to improve the impedance bandwidth of the antenna. The computed reflection coefficient findings show that the suggested antenna has a 46.2% wider relative bandwidth calculated at a 10 dB return loss. At the resonance frequencies of 6.5 GHz, the studied results show an optimal gain of 5.82 dBi and 85% optimal radiation efficiency at the operable band. The optometric analysis of the proposed structure shows that the proposed antenna can achieve wide enough bandwidth at the desired frequency and hence make the designed antenna appropriate to work in satellite communication and medical internet of things (M-IoT) healthcare applications.

무선 LAN 대역에서 동작하는 이중 적층 상부덮개를 적용한 고이득 원형편파 패치 안테나를 제안한다. 상부덮개는 단위 셀을 주기적으로 배열하는 구조를 갖고, 패치안테나 위에 일정한 높이의 공기층을 두고 배치된다. 제안된 안테나는 최대 9.59dBi의 안테나 이득을 얻을 수 있는데 이는 패치안테나만 있는 경우에 비해 6.48dB 향상된 결과이다. 또한, 제안된 안테나는 높은 안테나 이득을 유지하면서 3dB 이하의 낮은 축비를 갖는데 이는 패치안테나의 원형 편파 특성이 잘 유지됨을 의미한다. $4{\times}4$ 배열구조를 갖는 상부덮개와 패치안테나 간의 공기층 높이는 25mm에서 최적이고, 이는 2.45GHz 주파수에서 대략 $0.2{\lambda}$에 해당된다. 결과적으로 상부덮개를 이중으로 적층함으로써 유효 개구면 크기가 증가되고, 이에 따라 패치안테나의 이득이 향상됨을 확인하였다.

차량용 근거리레이다에서 사용하는 70GHz대역 고이득 배열안테나를 설계하고 제작하였다. 근거리 레이다에서는 분해능을 높이기 위해서 이득이 높아야 하며 FoV(Field of View)를 확보하기 위한 Angle Width를 가져야 한다. 제안된 안테나는 76~81GHz에서 동작하며 Angle width $60^{\circ}$, 안테나이득 15dB 이상을 만족하고 동작주파수내에서 입력반사계수 -10dB 이하의 성능을 갖는다. 안테나의 측정을 위하여 Wave guide WR-10을 사용하였고 측정결과 시뮬레이션과 유사한 결과를 얻었다.

This paper presents a novel design of a differential patch antenna for 60-GHz millimeter-wave applications. The design process of the back-to-back (BTB) patch antenna is based on the conventional single-patch antenna. The initial design of the BTB patch antenna (Type-I) has a patch size of 0.66 × 0.98 mm² and a substrate size of 0.99 × 1.48 mm². It has a gain of 1.83 dBi and an efficiency of 94.4% with an omni-directional radiation pattern. A 0.4 mm-thick high-resistivity silicon (HRS) is employed for the substrate of the BTB patch antenna. The proposed antenna is further analyzed to investigate the effect of substrate size and resistivity. As the substrate resistivity decreases, the gain and efficiency degrade due to the substrate loss. As the substrate (HRS) size decreases approaching the patch size, the resonant frequency increases with a higher gain and efficiency. The BTB patch antenna has optimal performances when the substrate size matches the patch size on the HRS substrate (Type-II). The antenna is redesigned to have a patch size of 0.81 × 1.18 mm² on the HRS substrate in the same size. It has an efficiency of 94.9% and a gain of 1.97 dBi at the resonant frequency of 60 GHz with an omni-directional radiation pattern. Compared to the initial design of the BTB patch antenna (Type-I), the optimal BTB patch antenna (Type-II) has a slightly higher efficiency and gain with a considerable reduction in antenna area by 34.8%.

본 논문에서는 구형 캐비티 부착형 고이득 마이크로스트립 안테나를 설계 및 제작하였다. 단일 마이크로스트립 패치는 기본적으로 이득이 낮다. 이득개선법에 따라 상층기판을 두는 기술이 캐비티 부착형 $2\times2$ 마이크로스트립 배열 안테나에 적용된다. 안테나를 설계함에 있어서 비록 캐비티가 커짐에 따라 이득이 증가하지만 캐비티 크기가 $3\times3$ 파장이면 충분하다. 방사 소자간의 길이는 1.5배의 자유공간 파장으로 한다. 안테나 방사특성은 IE3D 소프트웨어로 계산되고 측정치와 실험적으로 비교한다. 실험 결과는 최대 이득이 9.16GHz에서 18.6dBi의 이득을 가지고 이는 계산결과와 잘 일치한다.
