Gain enhancement of ultra-wideband hexagonal slot antenna using tessellated rhombic loops based reflector
A simple technique for gain enhancement of irregular hexagonal shaped ultra-wide band (UWB) slot antenna by inclusion of closely packed tessellated rhombic loop (TRL) based FSS is presented in this paper. The slot antenna is designed to cover entire UWB (3.1–10.6 GHz) frequency range with stable bi-directional radiation pattern. Also, it exhibits non-uniform boresight gain in zenith (θ = 0°) and nadir (θ = 180°) directions. The slot antenna is further loaded with TRL FSS at both slot and feed side separately to study distinct configurations of antenna integrated with FSS and evaluate the impact of the configurations of FSS on antenna performance. Later, an antenna and antenna loaded with TRL FSS prototype are developed for experimental validations. Through measurements it is found that the slot antenna covers entire UWB frequency band and provides a maximum of 4.31 dB gain in zenith direction while 4 dB gain in nadir direction. A gain enhancement of 2.44 dB in zenith and 3.8 dB in nadir directions are achieved when the slot antenna is integrated with TRL FSS along feed side and slot side separately. The measured results confirm the simulated results well.
期刊介绍:
Frequenz is one of the leading scientific and technological journals covering all aspects of RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering. It is a peer-reviewed, bi-monthly published journal.
Frequenz was first published in 1947 with a circulation of 7000 copies, focusing on telecommunications. Today, the major objective of Frequenz is to highlight current research activities and development efforts in RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering throughout a wide frequency spectrum ranging from radio via microwave up to THz frequencies.
RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering is a very active area of Research & Development as well as of Applications in a wide variety of fields. It has been the key to enabling technologies responsible for phenomenal growth of satellite broadcasting, wireless communications, satellite and terrestrial mobile communications and navigation, high-speed THz communication systems. It will open up new technologies in communications, radar, remote sensing and imaging, in identification and localization as well as in sensors, e.g. for wireless industrial process and environmental monitoring as well as for biomedical sensing.
