CPW Dual-Band Antenna Based on Asymmetric Generalized Metamaterial Π Nri Transmission Line for Ultra Compact Applications

Abstract

Abstract-In this paper, an ultra compact dual-band metamaterial antenna based on a new asymmetric generalized negative refractive index transmission line is introduced. The antenna was designed to support the 900 MHz GSM and 2400 RFID/WiFi bands. Moreover, the antenna size is only (15 × 20 mm 2 ) which is less than (0.08λ g × 0.1λ g ) at the center frequency of the first resonance and (0.22λ g × 0.29λ g ) at the center frequency of the second resonance. The theoretical design steps of the antenna are explained. The dual-band antenna design has been validated using equivalent circuit modelling, electromagnetic full wave simulations and practical measurement. The results illustrate that the antenna has the first resonance centred at 0.9 GHz and the second at 2.4 GHz with 15 dB return loss in the two bands. Good agreements among the circuit modelling, electromagnetic full wave simulation and practical measurements have been achieved.

A Compact Metamaterial Quad-Band Antenna Based on Asymmetric E-CRLH Unit Cells

“…At higher frequencies, gains of the antenna are enhanced and comparable with previous quad-band antennas. In addition, the proposed antenna has a better gain at low frequencies than the reported dual-band NRI-TL antenna (−17 dBi at 0.9 GHz and −8 dBi at 2.4 GHz) in [24].…”

“…Ref. [24] presents a dualband antenna based on a modified asymmetric NRI-TL unit cell. This antenna has a compact size but exhibits a very low gain at the operating frequencies.…”

SRR loaded periwinkle flower shaped fractal antenna for multiband applications

“…Flowers are irregular in nature could be fractals and they add an additional dimension to the whole landscape. Fractals are only a muse—too rough pro‐Euclidean geometry, iterative plus recursive in addition to ostensibly countless. They twist up within food with germs, plants along with animals, mountains along with water plus sky.…”

CRLH CPW Antenna Using Cuboid Structure for VHF Application

“…병렬 인덕턴스값을 키우기 위해서는 스파이럴 인덕터, 미앤더 라인의 크기를 키워야 하는데, 이는 안테 나의 물리적인 크기가 커지는 단점이 있다. 이로 인해 대 부분의 CRLH 전송선 기반 안테나 연구는 UHF 대역에서 활발히 진행되고 있으며 [3]∼ [6] , VHF 대역에서의 연구는 부족한 실정이다 [7] . [8], [9] .…”
