A Novel Singularity-Free Analysis of Coaxial-Fed Thick Monopole Antennas

An accurate and novel analysis of coaxial-fed thick tubular monopole antenna is presented. Pocklington's integrodifferential equation is solved with method of moments (MoM) for the z-directed surface current density. By using segmentation along the perimeter, we have taken circumferential variation of the current density into account. Exact kernel formulation is used in MoM where a novel representation of the kernel free of singularities is introduced. Same representation is used for modeling the source as magnetic frill current in order to handle existing singularities. Favorable comparison of the input impedance and admittance between computed and published measured and computed data is demonstrated. Circumferential change of the surface current density is displayed for the case of a plane wave incidence on a thick wire.

This paper presents a wideband fractal antenna and compares two efficient rectifier topologies suitable for 2.45 GHz band. The combined fractal antenna and the rectifiers may be used for ambient RF energy harvesting from wireless LAN/Wi-Ei. The proposed fractal antenna covers the most frequently encountered frequency bands which are located around 1800 MHz, 2.1 GHz, 2.4 GHz and 2.45 GHz corresponding to standards like GSM/DCS, UMTS, ISM and WLAN respectively. The return loss of the proposed antenna is below...
Design of a dual polarized low profile antenna for microwave brain imaging
Üçel, Kaan; Alatan, Lale; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2022-5-9)
In this thesis, a low profile, low cost, wide band (0.9-2GHz) dual linearly polarized printed dipole antenna is designed to be used in microwave brain imaging systems. Dual polarization feature offers superior data acquisition through polarization diversity for better image quality. Starting from a simple printed dipole, antenna structure is modified step by step to meet these design requirements. Since a conductive surface in close vicinity of the antenna affects antenna performance, in order to obtain uni...
Design of Irregularly Shaped Patch Antennas by using the Multiport Network Model
Sener, Goker; Alatan, Lale; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa (2008-07-11)
The multiport network model (MNM) is an analytical method that is used to analyze microstrip antennas. MNM is based on defining ports along the periphery of the patch and evaluating the impedance matrix corresponding to these ports by using the Greenpsilas function for the cavity under the patch. For regular rectangular, triangular and circular patches, analytical expressions for the Greenpsilas function are available. In the analysis of irregular patches, Greenpsilas functions cannot be calculated explicit...

In this paper, an efficient method for the analysis of electromagnetic scattering/radiation from the obstacles nearby electrically large array antennas, with nonuniform excitation, is proposed. The approach is based on the combination of a ray field representation of electrically large arrays and a DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform) based representation of array current distribution. Proposed method is applied to a 2D problem: Radiation of a linear array of 2N+1 infinitely long current elements with tapered c...
