The working principles of coplanar-waveguide (CPW) -fed, ultra-wideband (UWB) printed antennas are investigated. The behavior of the current distributions at different frequencies are examined. The modifications in the current distributions when the phase of the currents changes lead us to some conclusions on the behavior of UWB antennas.

SIMPLE ANALYTICAL CALCULATION APPROACH FOR INPUT IMPEDANCE OF PRINTED MONOPOLE AND DIPOLE ANTENNAS ON THIN SUBSTRATE
Akan, Volkan; Yazgan, Erdem (Wiley, 2011-04-01)
Printed antennas are very popular for commercial and military RF (radio frequency)/microwave communication systems because there is an enormous evolution in printed circuit technology. In this study, printed monopole and filamentary excited dipole, which are basic models and easily applicable antennas within printed antennas, are analyzed, and analytical closed-form relations have been obtained. The expressions obtained in this article have been verified by CST Microwave Studio simulation numerically, and e...
Modeling and synthesis of circular-sectoral arrays of log-periodic antennas using multilevel fast multipole algorithm and genetic algorithms
Ergül, Özgür Salih (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2007-06-19)
Circular-sectoral arrays of log-periodic (LP) antennas are presented for frequency-independent operation and beam-steering capability. Specifically, nonplanar trapezoidal tooth LP antennas are considered in a circular array configuration, where closely spaced antennas occupy a sector of the circle. Electromagnetic interactions of the array elements, each of which is a complicated LP antenna structure, are rigorously computed with the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA). Genetic algorithms (GAs) are ...
E-plane sectoral horn power divider
Secmen, M.; Demir, Şimşek; Hizal, A. (Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 2010-02-01)
E-plane sectoral horn power divider design method for high-power antenna array applications is presented. In this method, power division is proportional to the cross section areas of the waveguide channels at the aperture of an E-plane sectoral horn antenna. Two different power dividers are designed and produced to be used with an X-band antenna array having 30 dB Taylor distribution. The first one employs a simple E-plane sectoral horn antenna. This straightforward application of the method might be limite...
Nonplanar trapezoidal tooth log-periodic antennas: Design and electromagnetic modeling
Ergül, Özgür Salih (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2005-10-18)
Nonplanar trapezoidal tooth log-periodic (LP) antennas are investigated by combining the wisdom of theoretical design procedures with the power of accurate numerical simulation environments. Once the theoretical design is completed, electromagnetic simulations employing accurate integral equation solvers are utilized to test and correct the original design. A two-element array of trapezoidal tooth LP antennas is designed. The array features beam-steering ability as a novelty, in addition to frequency indepe...
Dual-Polarization Wideband Sub-6 GHz Suspended Patch Antenna for 5G Base Station
Ciydem, Mehmet; Miran, Emre A. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-07-01)
This letter presents a simple, compact, low-cost, low-profile, dual-polarization, suspended patch antenna design to operate in 3.3-3.8 GHz band for 5G base stations. The proposed antenna comprises a main radiating patch, a secondary parasitic patch, modified L-probe feeds, and a vertical metal wall. The main patch is capacitively driven by two feeds for dual (+/- 45 degrees slant) polarization. The vertical metal wall is used to increase the port isolation. The parasitic patch also helps further improvement...
