We use the phased-array model to theoretically analyze the conical beam-shaping. It shows that the cone angle of the conical beam can be arbitrarily controlled by just changing the initial phase excitation distribution on the array. Based on this mechanism, a passive reflective metasurface is designed to generate conical beam with certain cone angle. The metasurface element, designed based on the concept of geometric phase, is composed of two orthogonal I-shaped metallic structures etched on a back-grounded dielectric substrate. Under the normal illumination of left-circularly polarized incidence, left-circularly polarized conical wave can be obtained at 15.5 GHz with a cone angle of 13.6 degree. Simulation and measurement are carried out to validate the theoretical prediction, which show good agreement with each other.

We have proposed and investigated a high-gain and broadband dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) array with simplified substrate-integrated-waveguide (SIW) feed network for 67GHz band in this paper. A double-layered SIW feeding network with wideband H-junction and wideband high-gain slot dielectric resonator antenna array is employed to achieve high gain and wideband performance simultaneously. The simulated impedance bandwidth of 15% and a gain up to 13.9 dB have been offered. Together with the advantages of low-profile and low fabrication costs, the proposed antenna array could serve as a promising candidate for millimeter-wave wireless communication systems.

Using travelling-wave elements, two planar antenna arrays are developed for millimeter-wave wideband circularly polarized (CP) applications. First, the aperture-fed travelling-wave element is designed. Stacked curl element is printed on the surface of the substrate to realize wideband axial ratio (AR) and impedance performance. Then, two antenna arrays using substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) and microstrip feeding networks are developed, respectively. Performance comparison between these two arrays are discussed. Finally, the wideband CP antenna array which is fed by the SIW network is fabricated and measured. The measured impedance bandwidth of the array is 35.4%, 3-dB AR bandwidth is 33.8%, and 3-dB gain bandwidth is 32.2% with a peak gain of 23.5 dBic. The overall bandwidth is 30.6% and good efficiency of about 70% is obtained because of the low-loss full-corporate SIW feeding scheme.

A wideband switchable frequency selective surface (FSS) absorber/reflector for 4–8 GHz application is presented. Finite element method simulation shows that improved double split-ring's mutual effect along with coupled resonance could help achieve wideband switchable properties. Practical wideband absorption and switchable performances are accomplished based on series switches and isolative bias network. The measurement results show that the absorption of switchable FSS in the OFF state is wide and strong with a satisfied reflection in the ON state. The wideband switchable FSS absorber/reflector is valuable in the field of smart stealth system.

In the millimeter-wave frequencies, the dosimetric quantity for human exposure to electromagnetic fields changes from the specific absorption rate to incident power density. In this study, we used 28 GHz various fixed-beam patch arrays and plane waves to investigate the temperature elevation in a multilayer model of human heads and its correlation with incident power density in free space. The results show that the averaging area of a few square-centimeters may be a good candidate for the spatial-average power density. The findings provide valuable input to the ongoing revision and updating of relevant safety standards and guidelines.

Due to the presence of parasitic patches, the antenna achieves a low profile and a broadband characteristic in terms of impedance matching and CP radiation bandwidth. The final design, which has an overall size of 120 mm × 120 mm 0╫ 16.3 mm (0.64λ0 × 0.64λ0 × 0.087λ0 at 1.6 GHz), yields a −10 dB impedance bandwidth of 1.39–1.75 GHz (22.93%), a 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth of 1.472–1.684 GHz (13.4%), a right-hand CP broadside gain of > 8.4 dBic, and a radiation efficiency of > 96%.

In recent years, many types of mobile radio devices are used in close vicinity of our body. Along with the situation, electromagnetic energy absorption evaluated by specific absorption rate (SAR) radiated from the mobile radio terminal such as cellular phone has been investigated. In this study, changing the point of view, the SAR by a wireless local area network (LAN) router, which is sometimes installed around our body, was evaluated employing numerical calculations and measurements. As a result, the SAR distributions around the antenna were revealed.

A metasurface antenna is proposed for the dual-band operation in 5G millimeter systems. The metasurface consists of a single-layered square patch array excited by two microstrip feeding slots cut onto the bottom ground. The characteristic mode analysis is used to optimize the metasurface patterns for the dual-band operation. The modes of metasurface resonant at 30 GHz, 38 GHz, and 41 GHz, respectively. To broaden the bandwidth, the etched slots on the ground are resonant as well. The impedance is matched over the frequency ranges of 23.75–28.8 GHz and 36.22–40.5 GHz with return loss larger than 10 dB. The simulated gain reaches 8.8–10.17 dBi and 9.46–12.6 dBi over the operating bands, respectively.

In this paper, a flexible slot-ring antenna printed on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate is designed for wireless power harvesting at 2.4 GHz. The main aim of this work is to design, fabricate and measure the energy harvesting performance of this PET-based antenna. We have evaluated a feasible new and energy-efficient method for patterning copper layer on PET substrate by E-beam evaporation, without resorting to the etching process in conventional metal patterning. The thickness of copper layer is controllable, and in this case it is 150 nm. The antenna manufactured by this method is flexible and exhibits good performance. The proposed antenna is characterized by vector network analyzer (VNA) and microwave anechoic chamber. The reflection coefficient is −26.4 dB at 2.4 GHz, and the measured radiation gain is 2.7 dBi at 2.45 GHz.
