In this paper, we design a UHF band RFID tag antenna which is conjugate matched to an impedance of a chip and also mountable on conductive materials. The proposed tag antenna is very compact($50{\times}30{\times}4mm$) with a modified PIFA shape. The proposed tag antenna has an advantage of easy matching to various chip input impedances. The performance of the antenna is evaluated by monitoring RCS in the reader direction. The RCS of the designed tag is $-10.2\;dBm^2$ when the chip is shorted and is $-21\;dBm^2$ when the chip impedance is a complex conjugate of the antenna impedance.

This paper presents design simulation, implementation, and measurement of a miniaturized GPS/K-PCS dual-band LTCC chip antenna for mobile communication handsets. The dimension of LTCC chip antenna is $9mm\times15mm\times1.2mm$. The meander type radiating patch for dual-band operation is realized by using via holes with 0.3mm height to connect upper and lower-layer antenna. The lower meander type antenna is to be tuned to the lower frequency (GPS) band. The upper meander antenna with via hole connection is to contribute the higher frequency (K-PCS) band. The resonant frequency and frequency ratio of the proposed antenna can be adjusted by changing the height of via-hole and effective path of meander radiating patch. The electrical characteristics of the meander chip antenna applied to a GPS/K-PCS are suitable for mobile communication application.

In this paper, a new small chip antenna for Wi-Fi application of the mobile handset is proposed. To miniaturize the chip antenna, the proposed antenna is designed to have the backside ground. The proposed antenna has S-shaped structure, which is designed on the LCP(Liquid Crystal Polymer) with ${\varepsilon}_r$=3.5. The size of the proposed antenna is $6.0mm{\times}2.5mm{\times}1.2mm$. The measured impedance bandwidth under a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) of 2 was 300 MHz(fractional bandwidth: 12.2 % 2.3~2.6 GHz), and peak gain is 1.42 dBi. The proposed antenna was designed using CST Microwave Studio commercial software tool. And the fabricated antenna is measured using a network analyzer and in anechoic chamber.

In this paper, an active antenna module operating in the 60 GHz band is designed and fabricated by combining a commercial transmitter chip and patch array antenna. The designed module is composed of an antenna PCB and a PCB with a transmitter chip. The frequency-control and bias-control signals are applied to the transmitter chip, using an Arduino kit. A baseband I/Q signal is also applied to the chip. A ring hybrid balun converts the output of the transmitter module to a single output, which is the output of the transmitter chip that outputs a differential output. The output is delivered to the $2{\times}4$ microstrip patch array antenna PCB as a micro-computer connector. The radiation pattern of the millimeter-wave signal of the final output is compared with the simulation results. The measured radiation patterns of the fabricated active antenna module confirm that the positions of the 3 dB beam width and null point agree well with the simulation results.

A multilayer ceramic chip antenna with helical structure is analyzed to enhance the narrow bandwidth of conventional ceramic chip antennas. The simulations are performed by HFSS to verify the effects of structural parameters on impedance bandwidth. The multilayer ceramic chip antennas consist of a rectangular-parallelepiped ceramic body$({\varepsilon}_r=7.8,\; tan\; {\delta}=0.0043)$ and helical conductor patterns are embedded in the ceramic body using LTCC-MLC technology. 3D structure design of the multilayer ceramic chip antenna suitable for IMT-2000 (1,920~2,170 MHz) handset has been implemented, and experimental results are presented and discussed.

This paper presents an optimized design of a millimeter-wave on-chip dipole antenna using CMOS process. The serious flaw of the antenna using CMOS process is low radiation efficiency because of high permittivity and conductivity. To overcome the weakness, we need to widen radiation area in air and optimize distance between an antenna and a reflector. The radiation efficiency and bandwidth of the designed antenna are respectively 16.5 % and 22.3 % at 80 GHz. Systematic methods are attempt to analyze an effect on the antenna radiation efficiency. To widen radiation area in air, substrate cut angle and distance between the antenna and chip edge are adjusted. In addition, to optimize distance between an antenna and reflector, substrate thickness and distance between the antenna and a circuit ground plane are adjusted.
