This paper represents the design of a microstrip patch antenna which is reconfigurable by means of the effect of a pixel grid overlay that is placed at a certain distance from the antenna. hi addition to beam steering capability, this article will focus on several important parameters of the aforementioned antenna, such as, the directivity, the gain, radiation pattern and polarization. The antenna consists three main parts; a rectangular microstrip patch antenna that has the operating frequency at around 2.4 GlIz, a medium that keeps antenna apart from the pixel grid overlay on distance of coupling and the pixel grid overlay itself. The objective is to design a smart and compact antenna with beam steering capability to improve the power efficiency of transceivers used in NVLAN, Will and wiles sensor networks. The medium is adjusted to keep two adjacent layers on the coupling distance. The pixel grid overlay is formed by 31 pieces of a hexagonally shaped copper patch grid, each patch on the grid is arranged to be at coupling distance with neighboring patches as well. Besides being cost-effective, practical to apply and easy to produce, the parasitic-layer, has the advantage of ensuring the beam steering ability of the device. It has been also observed to increase the gain of the antenna and affect the radiation pattern.

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...
Design and Implementation of Transmitting and Receiving Antenna Pair on Flat Ring Surface
Haykir, Yigit; Karadağ, Savaş; Dagdeviren, Birkan; Demir, Şimşek (2018-11-02)
In this work, design and implementation of broadside altimeter antenna on circular ring surface are performed. Utilizing array factor formulation, possible locations for circular array elements are chosen. Slitted microstrip patch antennas are used for an efficient design. Satisfactory results are obtained for an altimeter antenna that can be utilized in missile, aircraft or spacecraft applications.
Design of asymmetric coplanar strip folded dipole antennas /
Karaciğer, Kamil; Alatan, Lale; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014)
This thesis includes the design, simulation, production and measurement of an asymmetric coplanar strip folded dipole antenna suitable to be used as an element in a linear array operating at S-band (2.7 GHz - 3.3 GHz). In this same manner, its usefulness as an array antenna is also explored in this thesis. This antenna element consists of a microstrip line feed, microstrip to coplanar stripline transition (BALUN) and asymmetric coplanar strip (ACPS) folded dipole. The planar folded dipole can be constructed...
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...
Analysis and design of microstrip patch antennas with arbitrary slot shapes
Şener, Göker; Alatan, Lale; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
A new method is proposed that provides simple and effcient design and analysis algorithm for microstrip antennas with arbitrary patch shapes. The proposed procedure uses the mutiport network model (MNM) where the antenna is considered as a cavity bounded by perfect electric conductors on the top and the bottom surfaces and perfect magnetic conductor on the side surfaces. Ports are defined along the periphery of the patch, and the impedance matrix representing the voltage induced at one port due to a current...
