Proximity study of a conformal UWB directional antenna on water pipe

Abstract: A preliminary study on the conformal properties of an antipodal exponentially tapered antenna placed on the surface of a flow meter system in the UWB range is presented. It was observed that the water effect can be mitigated by shifting the antenna away from the pipe surface. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

“…From Figure B, it can be obtained that the radiation of the tag antenna along the –z‐axis is stronger than the +z‐axis, the maximum gain at 908 MHz is 1.52 dB. The dielectric resonance takes place because of the high dielectric constant and the low conductivity of water …”

“…However, due to the conductivity of the human body, the backward radiation in the direction -z is decreased. On the other hand, when the antenna is mounted on the surface of a water-filled container, due to the high dielectric constant of water, dielectric resonance will occur, causing greater backward radiation [20].…”

“…Based on several studies, the flat patch antenna is not suitable for antenna to operate for UWB operating frequency [35][36][37][38]. Therefore, the UWB conformal antenna is proposed [39][40][41][42]. A single patch antenna for UAV used at ultra-wideband (UWB) frequencies (2.9 GHz to 15.9 GHz) has been designed by Balderas et al, [43].…”
