Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleWideband E-Shaped Microstrip Antenna for Wireless Sensor NetworksG. Elangovan, J. Rajapaul PerinbamProblem statement: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is currently receiving significant attention due to their unlimited potential. It is still very early in the lifetime of such systems and many research challenges exist, out of which one of the challenges is sensor processing and fusion under limited capacities, the most important component in sensor is its TX/RX antenna. Approach: For high-speed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 21 Nov 2011 · 7,106 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment of Wideband Planar Inverted-F Antennas for Wireless ApplicationSaida Ibnyaich, Abdelilah Ghammaz, Moha M’Rabet HassaniProblem statement: Due to the rapid development in wireless communication, the antennas capable of broad-band operations are very demanding in cellular communications systems. Among various possible antennas, planar inverted-F antennas (PIFAs) have the advantages of low profile and compact size and are very suitable for present-day wireless communication application. Approach: This study demonstrates a very effective method of bandwidth enhancement … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 14 Jul 2011 · 6,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMicroelectrical Mechanical Systems Switch for Designing Multi-Band AntennaA.H.M. Zahirul Alam, Md. Rafiqul Islam, Sheroz Khan, Muhammad Mahbubur RashidProblem statement: In this study Microelectrical Mechanical System (MEMS) switches were proposed to design a reconfigurable/multi-band antenna to replaced PIN diode switches or semiconductor switches due to lower insertion losses, good isolation, much lower intermodulation distortion, and lower power consumption. The antenna is able to operate at very high frequencies. Approach: A reconfigurable antenna that is capable to operate at … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,687 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAnalysis of Robustness for Convex Optimization Applied to Array Antenna Pattern SynthesisRichard Torrealba, David H. Covarrubias, Marco PanduroThis study presents an analysis of the convex optimization applied to the synthesis of the radiation pattern for linear antenna arrays. This study emphasizes the application of the convex optimization for the array pattern synthesis considering the simultaneous elimination of several zones interferences, reduction of the level of power in two space zones densely populated by interferences, as well as … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,566 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSmall Size and Dual Band of a Quadratic Koch Dipole Fractal Antenna DesignFawwaz J. Jibrael, Faez F. Shareef, Wafaa S. MummoThe performance and analysis of a small size, low profile and dual band quadratic Koch curve dipole antenna was introduced. The proposed antenna design, analysis and characterization had been performed using the method of moments (MoM) technique. The radiation characteristics, VSWR, reflection coefficient and input impedance of the proposed antenna were described and simulated using 4NEC2 software package, MATLAB v7.2 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,116 accessesView PDFCite
