In this paper, a dual-band antenna is proposed for the autonomous vehicle as well as omni-directional. The proposed antenna operates in the 4G/LTE band (1,710~2,170MHz) and 5G/NR band (3,400~3,700MHz). In order to obtain the dual-band operation, the planar monopole antenna is proposed as the novel structure with single port of the 50ohm. To give the properties of dual-band, an additional antenna element with slit was added to the planar monopole antenna, and then a structural adjustment parameter was optimized for achieving the target performance in bands. The planar monopole antenna in the LTE band acts as the coupled feed for the added parasitic radiator in the 5G NR band. The proposed antenna has $38.5{\times}36.0{\times}1.0[mm^3]$ on a ground with diameter of 96mm. From the fabrication and measurement results, the impedance bandwidth (VSWR<2) of the proposed antenna covers 1,480~2,260MHz (LTE band: 1,710~2,170MHz) and 3,310~3,930MHz (5G NR band: 3,400~3,700MHz). The proposed planar monopole antenna also obtained the measured gain and radiation pattern of omni-directional radiation pattern in the anechoic chamber.

In this paper, a planar directional beam-switchable antenna with four orthogonal beam directions is proposed. The proposed antenna is designed with two crossed active elements and two parasitic elements for each direction. The design methodology is described on the basis of the Yagi-Uda method for the active and parasitic elements, respectively. By adjusting the effective electric lengths of the parasitic elements, the roles of a director and a reflector are exchanged with each other. The planar four-way beam-switchable Yagi-Uda antenna is implemented. From the experimental results. The proposed design method is verified for orthogonal radiation beam switching.

A radiating elements fault diagnosis method with simplified radiation pattern measurement procedure was presented for planar active phased array antenna system. For presenting the mentioned method, the technique for linear approximation based on the radiation characteristics of a planar array configuration and a technique for solving a unique solution problem that occur in process of diagnosing a fault in a radiating elements were presented. Based on the presented method and a genetic algorithm, experimental simulations were performed for radiating element defect diagnosis according to various planar active phased array antenna configurations. As a result, it was confirmed that the presented radiating element fault diagnosis method can be smoothly applied to planar active phased antennas having various configurations.

This paper presents the improving impedance charactersitics of a planar monopole antenna with a vertical ground plane. For improving impedance characteristics, we used the effect of a vertical ground plane. To analyze the effect of vertical ground plane, we proposed the dipole antenna mode. the impedance characteristics of planar monopole antenna are improved by correlation between monopole antenna and vertical ground plane, based on each operating mode.

This paper describes a planar microstrip patch antenna designed on dielectric substrate. Two types of planar microstrip patch antennas are studied for the 5G wireless applications, one type is conventional microstrip structure, the other type is stacked microstrip structure fed by coaxial probe. Using electromagnetically coupling method, stacked microstrip patch antenna employing a multi-layer substrate structure was designed. The results indicate that the proposed stacked microstrip patch antenna performs well at 5G wireless service bandwith a broadband from 3.42GHz to 3.70GHz. The impedance bandwidth(VSWR≤2) is 360MHz(10.28%) from 3.42GHz to 3.78GHz. In this paper, through the designing of a stacked microstrip patch antenna, we have presented the availability for 5G wireless repeater system.

In this paper, we suggested the novel monopole antenna for dual band characteristics by a linear monopole antenna combined with crossed planar monopole antenna. The target frequency is ISM(Industrial Scientific Medical) 2.45GHz/5.8GHz. The distinctive features of the proposed antenna in this paper is based on the slit in the surface of a crossed planar monopole for the dual band characteristics and the omnidirectional radiation patterns. The compact size of the proposed antenna is $36mm{\times}5.4mm{\times}5.4mm$. According to the simulation results, the bandwidth, the reflection coefficients below -10dB, of 2.45GHz and 5.8GHz are 150MHz and 1.43GHz, respectively. Consequently the proposed antenna structures is apply to the antenna for dual band characteristics.

This study presents the structure design of antenna to have the dual band characteristics in a desired frequency band through the structural modification of an antenna structure. For the experiment, a wideband crossed planar monopole antenna was used. The target frequency band was set to ISM 2.45GHz/5.8GHz. To give the properties, an additional antenna element was added to the crossed planar monopole antenna, which is a main body of the antenna. And then structural adjustment parameter was set to change the length(shape) of the antenna. Various simulations were conducted to find the dual band characteristics in the desired frequency band. The simulations brought forth the antenna bandwidth above the normal values for ISM 2.45GHz/5.8GHz. The structural adjustment parameter introduced in this study for structural modification of an antenna can be useful in developing an antenna featured with dual band(multiband) characteristics.

In this paper, a novel wideband crossed planar monopole antenna with the double resonance characteristics is proposed. The proposed monopole antenna consists of a wideband crossed planar monopole antenna and L-shaped slits. In order to generate double resonance characteristics on the proposed monopole antenna, the length of L-shaped slit on the antenna surface is obtained from the quarter-wavelength of the second resonance frequency The double resonance characteristics of the proposed antenna can be easily designed by the control of length of L shaped slit at an interesting frequency. The proposed antenna having an omnidirectional radiation pattern and a high gain over the double resonance frequency bands, respectively, is suitable for mobile multiband antenna.

In this paper, we design and implement an Ultra-Wide Band (UWB, 3.1~10.6 GHz) antenna with 5G mobile communication (3.42~3.70 GHz) and Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN, 5.15~5.825 GHz) bands rejection characteristics. The proposed antenna consists of a planar radiation patch with two slots. The upper slot contributes to reject 5G mobile communication band and the lower slot contributes to reject WLAN band. The Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) values of the proposed antenna show good performances in whole UWB band except for rejection bands based on VSWR 2.0. The proposed UWB antenna was simulated using High Frequency Struture Simulator (HFSS) by Ansoft. The simulated antenna showed dual rejection bands of 3.31~3.92 GHz and 5.04~5.90 GHz in UWB band, and measured antenna showed dual rejection bands of 3.35~3.97 GHz and 5.06~5.97 GHz. The largest VSWR values measured at each rejection band are 13.60 at 3.64 GHz and 10.25 at 5.52 GHz. The measured maximum gain is 5.31 dBi at 10.00 GHz. The lowest gains for the measured antenna at rejection bands are -8.73 dBi at 3.70 GHz and -4.36 dBi at 5.56 GHz.

In this paper, we describe the procedure of simulation design and measured results of a compact planar antenna for handset applications. The broad bandwidth covering the interested frequency band for mobile handset is achieved by introduction of an open ended L-shaped slot which is newly proposed and corresponds to the monopole slot.
