This thesis includes the design, production and measurement of a wideband dualpolarized X-band aperture-coupled microstrip patch antenna. The wideband and dual-polarized operation is achieved through the use of H-shaped coupling slots. Therefore, the equivalent circuit modeling of a microstrip line fed H-shaped slot is also studied in this thesis. A step-by-step procedure is followed during the design process of the dual-polarized aperture-coupled microstrip antenna. First, an aperture-coupled microstrip antenna with a single rectangular slot, that exhibits a wideband characteristic for single polarization, is designed. Then, the design procedure is repeated for an antenna with H-shaped slot in order to satisfy the same specifications with a shorter slot. Finally, dual-polarized aperture-coupled microstrip antenna is designed. At this configuration, two H-shaped slots are used and they are placed orthogonal to each other. During the design process, the effects of antenna parameters on the input impedance characteristics of the antenna are investigated. These parametric analyses are done in CST Microwave Studio®. The v designed dual-polarized wideband aperture-coupled microstrip antenna is manufactured. Simulation results and measurement results are compared. During the equivalent circuit modeling of an H-shaped slot fed by a microstrip line, an approach based on the reciprocity theorem is utilized. The method was originally proposed for rectangular shaped slots, in this thesis it is generalized for arbitrarily shaped slots. Software codes are developed in MATLAB to calculate the equivalent impedance of the slot.

Analysis and design of reactively loaded dual band microstrip antenna
Bayram, Caner; Koç, Seyit Sencer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015)
This thesis includes the design, production and measurement of a reactively loaded microstrip patch antenna. The dual band and circular polarization operation are achieved through the use of narrow slots etched close to the radiating edges on a nearly square patch. During the design process, the effects of antenna parameters on the input impedance and axial ratio characteristics are investigated. A step-by-step procedure is followed during the design process. First, the dual band characteristic is investiga...
Analysis and design of active annular ring coupled circular patch antenna
Gebeşoğlu, Durmuş; Koç, Seyit Sencer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2017)
This thesis includes the design, production and measurement of the active, dual band annular ring coupled circular patch antenna. The dual band operation is achieved by using stacked patches. 3 dB hybrid is used to obtain circular polarization. Effects of antenna parameters on the input impedance and frequency ratio between the resonance frequencies are observed. Design has been achieved step by step. Firstly, dual band operation is investigated by using stacked patches. An annular ring antenna and a circul...
Design of magneto-electric dipole antenna for wideband communication systems
Alparslan, Semih; Alatan, Lale; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2018)
This thesis includes the design, simulation, production and measurement of a differential fed magneto-electric dipole antenna with cavity operating at ultrawideband (3.3 GHz – 10 GHz). This antenna consists of a differential feeding structure, an electric dipole, a magnetic dipole and a cavity. The ultra-wideband operation is achieved through the use of differential feeding structure and cavity. A step-by-step procedure is followed during the design process of the differential fed magneto-electric dipole an...
Analysis of various microstrip printed geometries using closed-form green’s functions
Ülkü, İrem; Dural Ünver, Mevlüde Gülbin; Alatan, Lale; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
In general, current distributions for different microstrip structures such as Single Microstrip Line (SML), Coupled Microstrip Line (CML) and Microstrip Patch Antenna (MPA) are obtained by using Method of Moments (MoM) in conjuction with closed-form spatial domain Green’s functions. Specifically, MPA is designed to obtain a Wideband Microstrip Patch Antenna (WMPA). The current distribution is acquired by the same analysis and bandwidth is obtained from the return loss graph for this WMPA. Standard MPA and W...
Phased array antenna calibration and experimental validation
Yalım, Alper; Demir, Şimşek; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
In this thesis, nine different methods aiming calibration of Phased Array Antenna (PAA) and Multifunctional Radars which employ PAA are presented. Those calibration methods are described, procedures of the methods are explained in detail, and information about constraints and measurement restrictions of those methods is given. As one step further, comprehensive work is focused on Multi-Element Phase Toggling (MEP) method and Rotating Element Vector (REV) method. Results of simulations are shown, theoretical...
