As the growth of mobile technology network increasing exponentially due to which radio frequency becomes more valuable natural resources. Shortage of bandwidth creates an enormous opportunities for researchers and engineers for exploration of underutilize millimeter wave spectrum in order to design and develop future technologies. It is a need of an hour to do extensive studies on the impact of millimeter wave technologies as both indoor and outdoor environments. This paper describes the various studies carried out earlier in the field of radio wave propagation at 60 GHz in different outdoor environments.
A Yagi antenna with three fractal Koch curve shaped elements is proposed in this paper. The antenna performances (radiation pattern, return loss and gain) are simulated and compared with these of classical Yagi antenna for the same frequency band. Fractal Yagi antenna features relatively small size and high gain. The return loss is experimentally measured.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
