The simulated bandwidths (return loss > 10 dB) achieved for the dual-band antenna are 2.29-2.50 GHz (~8.75%) for the lower band and 5.55-6.05 GHz (~8.62%) for the upper band.

We have combined the dominant TM010 mode resonance of inner resonator with the higher-mode resonance of outer resonator at same frequency level, in order to modify E-plane beamwidth, gain (E & H plane) and radiation efficiency of higher-mode resonance of outer resonator. To generate both modes at the same frequency, a quad-split ring shape patch is placed around the edges of inner patch antenna and single gap coupled microstrip feed is employed between the two resonators. The E-plane radiation pattern of the outer resonator (having dip at 0°) is combined with a directional E-plane radiation pattern of inner resonator due to same polarization level of both resonators. By using the above technique, up to 37.2 % increase in E-plane beamwidth (as compared to conventional patch antenna) and 71.5 % radiation efficiency is achieved.","PeriodicalId":342623,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Workshop on Antenna Technology (iWAT)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133558070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The antenna configuration consists of an ellipsoid as the subreflector and a combination of series of paraboloids with different focal lengths, which called subzone paraboloid, as the main reflector to keep low profile. Closed-form design equations are derived using the principles of geometrical optics. Two-dimension finite-difference time-domain method is introduced to obtain the characteristics of subzone paraboloid. CST is implemented to further analyze this antenna. The bandwidth of the antenna can be improved by adjusting the height of each paraboloid of the main reflector. Simulated results show that this antenna exhibits good radiation performance and is suitable for radar and communication system at W band.","PeriodicalId":342623,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Workshop on Antenna Technology (iWAT)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128376314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Transmitting signals are fed to two identical antennas through a rat race coupler for 180° phase difference, resulting in the antenna cancellation at a receiving antenna equally apart from transmitting antennas. The coupled transmitting signals are adjusted by RF cancellation circuits (attenuator, phase shifter and true time delay) and coupled back to the receiving antenna to achieve the RF circuit cancellation. After optimizing RF cancellation circuits, experimental result shows 60-dB cancellation over 20-MHz bandwidth in a noisy indoor environment. Also, practical difficulties of SIC in RF domain due to transmit and receive path losses and power budget are discussed.","PeriodicalId":342623,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Workshop on Antenna Technology (iWAT)","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131988971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
