In this work, a super wide band antenna is proposed to operate in the frequency band 2.3-23 GHz. The antenna has two planar arms with a modified diamond shape printed on the opposite faces of three-layer dielectric substrate. Each arm of the antenna is capacitively coupled to circular sector near its end to increase the impedance matching bandwidth. The dielectric substrate is customized to fit the shape of the antenna arms and the parasitic elements to reduce the dielectric loss. The substrate material is composed of three layers. The upper and lower layers are Rogers RO3003TM of 0.13 mm thickness and the middle layer is made of paper of 2.3 dielectric constant and 2.7 mm thickness. The antenna is fed through a wide band impedance matching balun. The antenna design stages are performed through electromagnetic simulations concerned with the parametric study to get the optimum antenna dimensions to numerically investigate the role of the parasitic element to enhance the antenna performance. A prototype of the proposed antenna is fabricated to validate the simulation results. The experimental measurements come in good agreement with the simulation results and both of them show that the antenna operates efficiently over the frequency band 2.3-23 GHz with minimum radiation efficiency of 97% and maximum gain of 5.2 dBi. The antenna has bandwidth to dimension ratio (BDR) of 1360.

In this paper, a uniform circular array (UCA) with circularly polarized (CP) square patches is presented for the generation of orbital angular momentum (OAM) beam with high azimuthal symmetry. The proposed CP UCA is a compact structure with a simple feed network generating OAM beams. The design consists of eight circularly polarized square patch antennas which are geometrically rotated to obtain the required phase distribution. The left hand circularly polarized square patch used as a radiating element in UCA exhibits l = + 1 OAM mode, while the right hand circularly polarized square patch exhibits l = - 1 OAM mode. In addition, the antenna exhibits a single-layer structure, which facilitated the fabrication of the design and reduced the cost as well. The simulated and measured results are reported showing that the antenna exhibits an OAM beam of l = + 1 and l = - 1 modes at 5.85 GHz with high azimuthal symmetry. The mode purity estimation is also reported for the OAM l = + 1 and l = - 1 modes. The gain of the conical shaped OAM beam is almost 11 dBi which makes it quite viable for applications in wireless and vehicular communications.

A semi-analytical method is presented for the assessment of induced electromagnetic field inside a multilayer head model exposed to radiated field of an arbitrary source antenna. First the source antenna is simulated by a full-wave software in the absence of the head model to evaluate its radiating characteristics. Then, by sampling of the source radiated fields, its spherical vector wave function (SVWF) amplitudes are evaluated. The well-known translation addition theorem for spherical vector wave functions (SVWFs) is implemented to translate radiating field SVWFs to the local coordinates system of head model. Neglecting the reaction of model on source fields, using boundary conditions on the interfaces of adjacent layers, the unknown SVWF amplitudes of the fields inside each layer as well as those of the scattered field outside the head model are evaluated. Some numerical examples are presented for the verification of the proposed method. The acceptable consistency between the results obtained by the proposed method and full-wave simulations of the problem verifies the authenticity of the proposed method. In comparison to a full-wave numerical method, the proposed method provides an efficient repeatable simulation approach due to the independency of the source and head model analyses.

Low-profile patch antennas have become ubiquitous in wireless terminals, especially as devices have become smaller and demand more functionality out of their RF subsystems. While their shape and size is attactive for many applications, their narrow bandwidth hinders their usage in many systems. With the rise of computer-aided design, many patch antenna design concepts have been presented with enhanced bandwidth capabilities. The E-shaped patch antenna, whose original shape presented in the early 2000’s resembles the letter E, offers compelling performance with reasonable manufacturing complexity. In it most basic form, this antenna was linearly polarized and either wideband or dual-band. Over the last two decades, many variations of the E-shaped patch have been presented in literature: circularly polarized, miniaturized, frequency reconfigurable, or even polarization reconfigurable. This paper summarizes these efforts in realizing novel functionalities with a relatively simple design geometry.

This paper develops an original study of temperature effect on the unfamiliar bandpass (BP) negative group delay (NGD) lumped passive circuits. The paper presents the first study of electrothermal analysis of electronic circuits classified as BP-NGD topologies. The considered BP-NGD passive cells are mainly constituted by RLC-resonant networks. The equivalence between two basic BP-NGD topologies constituted by RLC-series and RLC-parallel networks is elaborated via the voltage transfer function (VTF) analogy. Then, the theoretical demonstrations are introduced to define the main specifications as the NGD center frequency, NGD value, attenuation and NGD bandwidth. The electrothermal innovative study is developed based on the temperature coefficient resistor (TCR) of elements constituting the BP-NGD circuits. With proofs of concept of RLC-series and RLC-parallel circuits operating with -500 ns NGD value at 13.56 MHz, calculated and simulated results showing are in excellent agreement. The sensitivity analyses of BP-NGD specifications in function of ambient temperature variation from 0°C to 100°C are investigated. The BP-NGD response variations versus frequency and temperature are characterized with thermo-frequency cartographies and discussed.

This article represents a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) hybrid fractal antenna with wider bandwidth. The hybrid fractal MIMO antenna is created by integrating Minkowski and Koch curves on a half octagonal radiating patch. A wider impedance bandwidth 20.4GHz (1.0 to 21.4GHz) and 6.10GHz (23.9 to 30GHz) along with fractional bandwidth of 182.14% and 22.63% has been achieved by using an amalgamated fractal configuration and a tapered microstrip line feed. The proposed antenna retains high isolation between -20 to -50dB in the entire frequency range along with the DG value greater than 9.99 dB and the ECC less than 0.02. The operating frequency increases from 1.5GHz to 8.5GHz with gain of 8dBi .The gain is almost flat and varies between 4dBi to 7dBi in the frequency range from 8.5GHz to 21.1GHz. Further, in the frequency range from 23.9 to 25.9GHz, the gain rises exponentially to 14dBi Hence, the proposed hybrid fractal MIMO antenna is a proficient candidate for 5G, 3.5GHz band (3.4 – 3.6GHz), 5G NR (New Radio) frequency bands (3.3 – 5.0GHz), LTE band 46 (5.15 – 5.925GHz), EU (European Union) 5G frequency band (5.9 – 6.4GHz), UWB applications (3.1 – 10.6GHz) and 5G 26GHz frequency band.

This paper presents a transmission-line model of a multiple-shields multiconductor cable. This unified model includes at the same time the propagation and cross-coupling characteristics of the electrical wires and of the cable-shields. It also includes the electromagnetic characteristics of the shields (in terms of transfer impedance and transfer admittance). It is derived in compliance with the multiconductor-transmission-line theory and it is valid whatever the connection configurations at the shield ends are. Therefore, it makes it possible the modelling of realistic connection problems ranging from ideal 360° shield connections to simple bonding wires. In addition, it is suitable for both electromagnetic susceptibility and emission problems. The paper proposes a physical explanation of the derived per-unit-length matrices. This unified model is also used to define the required conditions for being able to calculate the response of a shielded-cable in a two-steps model in which the shield problem and the inner shield problem are solved in sequence. Finally, the paper illustrates an application of the model in order to evaluate performances of a shielded-cable-link on crosstalk configurations with respect to various electrical bonding techniques of the shield.

In the antenna array synthesis problems, most of the works in literature utilize isotropic elements. Thus, the mutual coupling effects between the array elements are neglected. It is obvious that an array antenna synthesized by neglecting the coupling effects cannot be used in the real world applications due to the possible mismatch between the desired and realized radiation patterns. In this paper, a novel method based on neural network algorithm RBF (Radial Basis Function ) for the synthesis and model of Antipodal Vivaldi antenna with mutual coupling effect is presented. The synthesis in implementation’s method for this type of array permits to approach the appropriated radiation pattern while considering the mutual coupling between its elements. The neural network is used to estimate the array elements’ excitations. The architecture of the neural network based on the radial basis functions (RBFs) is introduced and simulation results are presented. Results show that there is an agreement between the desired specifications and the synthesized one. The proposed optimization approach offers an efficient and robust synthesis procedure.
