The Compact Yagi Antenna Design Serve Beamforming Operation and Smart Antenna Application

Abstract

In this paper, a compact and lower profile Yagi-Uda antenna with a balanced to unbalanced (sleeve balun) feed network and directional beam controlled by reflector and directors is presented. Parasitic director, driver and reflector of the designed antenna are designed to control the beam peak and beam bandwidth by the director toward the end-fire direction to centralize radiation power energy for point to point downlink and uplink multi direction multiplexed wireless communication applications and applied 4×4 beamforming (bulter matrix) network for smart antenna design and measurement.
