Item type:Publication, Conceivable Design of a Wideband Unidirectional Antenna using Truncated Microstrip Patches for S-Band Applications(2025-01-01) ;Hemachai, Thanaphon ;Janpangngern, Pisit ;Dentri, SitthichaiThis paper presents the conceivable design of a wideband unidirectional antenna suitable for CubeSat applications operating in the S-band frequency ranges of 2.025-2.110 GHz (uplink band) and 2.200-2.290 GHz (downlink band). The antenna employs a truncated microstrip patch design combined with additional parasitic patches to achieve circular polarization. It is printed on an RT/duroid<sup>®</sup> 5880 substrate with a thickness of 0.6 mm and a relative permittivity of 2.2. The design consists of a central truncated radiating patch and four segment-circular parasitic patches, positioned near the edges of the substrate to enhance bandwidth and axial ratio performance, which is crucial for achieving circular polarization. The antenna is excited using a coaxial probe feed to ensure efficient energy transfer and proper impedance matching. Simulation results demonstrate that the antenna achieves a wide impedance bandwidth covering 1.80 GHz to 2.40 GHz with a reflection coefficient (|S11|) below -10 dB. The axial ratio remains below 3 dB across the frequency range of 2.025 GHz to 2.290 GHz, confirming circular polarization, with a minimum axial ratio of 1.34 dB at 2.25 GHz. Additionally, the antenna exhibits a stable gain of approximately 7.28 dBic at 2.15 GHz, making it suitable for CubeSat communication systems requiring reliable and efficient signal transmission. To further strengthen the contribution of this research, a performance comparison with existing CubeSat antennas is provided, along with a discussion of potential environmental impacts in space, such as temperature variations and radiation effects. Future work will focus on prototyping, experimental validation, and optimizing the antenna design for different mission scenarios, including scaling for other frequency bands and multi-antenna configurations. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Inverted l-shaped cp patch antenna with corner-truncated partial ground plane diagonally adjoined with square branch for l-band applications(2021-02-02) ;Boontamchauy, Phanuphong ;Lertwiriyaprapa, TitipongThis research proposes an inverted L-shaped patch antenna with a corner-truncated partial ground plane diagonally adjoined to a square branch for L-band applications. The adjoining square branch was used to perturb linear polarization for circular polarization, and the corner-truncated partial ground plane was utilized to enhance the axial ratio bandwidth (ARBW). Simulations were performed, an antenna prototype was fabricated, and experiments were carried out. The simulation and measured results were in good agreement. The proposed antenna could achieve an ARBW of 77.87% (1.09–2.48 GHz). The novelty of this research lies in the concurrent use of a square branch and a corner-truncated partial ground plane to realize wide ARBW in an L-band, rendering the technology suitable for satellite communication and navigation applications. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Broadband circularly polarized microstrip patch antenna using circular artificial ground structure and meandering probe(2020-01-01) ;Pookkapund, Khanet; ;Kuse, Ryuji; Fukusako, TakeshiTo enhance axial ratio (AR) bandwidth, this research proposes a circularly polarized (CP) single-fed microstrip patch antenna using a circular artificial ground structure (AGS) and meandering probe. To achieve broader AR bandwidth, the circular AGS is populated with rectangular unit cells and partially cut unit cells along the circular contour, while the meandering probe is used to improve the impedance bandwidth. Simulations are performed and results compared with that of conventional rectangular-AGS antenna. The simulation results show that the circular-AGS antenna, given 62 mm circular ground plane, achieves broader impedance (5.12 - 9.00 GHz and 54%), AR (5.21 - 8.27 GHz and 45%) and gain bandwidths (3.85 - 7.00 GHz and 58.06%), in comparison with the rectangular-AGS antenna (4.50 - 7.45 GHz and 49%; 4.52 - 7.42 GHz and 21%; and 4.00 - 6.80 GHz and 51.58% for impedance, AR and gain bandwidths). The circular-AGS antenna is capable of converting linear polarization in the off-axial ratio band into circular polarization. To verify, a circular-AGS antenna prototype is fabricated and experiments undertaken. The experimental impedance, AR and gain bandwidths of the circular-AGS antenna are 47.82% (5.17 - 8.42 GHz), 43.81% (5.24 - 8.17 GHz) and 60.74% (3.75 - 7.00 GHz). The proposed circular-AGS antenna can achieve broader AR bandwidth and is thus ideal for broadband CP applications. The novelty of this research lies in the use of circular AGS to effectively enhance AR bandwidth, as opposed to rectangular AGS which is conventionally used in CP polarizers. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Corner-truncated patch antenna with parasitic elements and circular feed slot for S-band CubeSat applications(2025-12-01) ;Hemachai, Thanaphon ;Dentri, Sitthichai ;Janpangngern, Pisit; Torrungrueng, DanaiThis study presents a corner-truncated patch antenna with symmetrically loaded parasitic elements and a circular feed slot designed for CubeSat S-band communication applications. The antenna design evolves through successive stages, integrating corner truncations, a slit-ring structure, and segment-circular parasitic patches to enhance impedance matching and polarization performance. In its final configuration, a dual-stacked arrangement with inter-substrate spacing and a vertical capacitive feed further improves current distribution symmetry and broadens the operational bandwidth. Parametric analysis validates the effectiveness of each antenna design refinement, demonstrating improvements in impedance bandwidth, axial ratio bandwidth, and gain performance. The fabricated prototype achieves a wide impedance bandwidth from 1.65 GHz to 2.70 GHz, fully encompassing the CubeSat uplink (2.025–2.110 GHz) and downlink (2.200–2.290 GHz) frequency ranges. It maintains an axial ratio below 3 dB across 1.97 GHz to 2.32 GHz, ensuring efficient circular polarization. Additionally, a stable gain of approximately 7.50 dBic at 2.025 GHz supports reliable communication with ground stations. The combination of compact structure, low profile, and wideband circular polarization makes the proposed antenna a promising candidate for CubeSat communication systems. The novelty of this research lies in the integration of a corner-truncated patch, symmetrically loaded segment-circular parasitic elements, and a circular slit-ring capacitive feed within a dual-stacked substrate configuration to achieve wideband circular polarization and stable unidirectional radiation. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Design of circularly polarized and electrically small antenna with omnidirectional radiation pattern(2014-12-01) ;Lertsakwimarn, Kittima; Fukusako, TakeshiThis paper presents an electrically small and circularly polarized antenna with an omnidirectional radiation pattern. The antenna consists of a horizontal loop element enclosed by two U-shaped elements and a vertical element from the feeding point. The radiation pattern of the circular polarization is omnidirectional and has a maximum gain of -2 dBic in parallel to the ground plane at the 900 MHz band. The antenna dimensions are 48 × 20 × 13.8mm (0.14 λ × 0.06 λ × 0.04 λ) with ka = 0.476 (i.e. < 0.5), where k is the wavenumber at the resonant frequency and a is the radius of a sphere surrounding the antenna. The dimension corresponds to the definition of an electrically small antenna. The omnidirectional circularly polarized pattern of a prototype antenna shows good agreement with that of the simulation. In addition, this paper introduces a mechanism that generates omnidirectional circular polarization from electrically small antennas. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Investigations of Radiation Characteristics of a circularly polarized conical beam spherical slot array antenna(1999-01-01); ; Takada, Jun IchiThis paper presents the radiation characteristics of a circularly polarized conical beam spherical slot array antenna for applying to the mobile satellite communication subscriber. The structure of the antenna is easy to fabricate i.e., a ring of perpendicular slot pairs cut on an outer surface of a concentric conducting spherical cavity enclosed by the conducting conical surface with the simple feeding structure, and a linear electric probe excited at the center of the inner surface of the cavity. Radiation fields of a spherical slot array antenna are calculated by superposing the patterns of all the slots. From the numerical results of the radiation pattern, in both elcvational and azimuthal planes, it is obvious that the conical beam is realized. The elevational beam direction is low, which is suitable for installing in the land mobile subscriber unit located far from the equator. The tracking system is not necessary because the azimuthal pattern is omnidirectional. Directivity of the antenna for various spherical radii and angles of slot positions are illustrated as the guidelines for the design. Experimental results are in good agreement with the predictions. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Investigations of a Circularly Polarized Slotted Corner-Truncated Microstrip Patch Antenna with Split-Ring AMC Reflector(2025-01-01) ;Ainthachot, Chalanthon ;Janpangngern, Pisit ;Dentri, SitthichaiThis paper presents the design and development of a circularly polarized slotted corner-truncated microstrip patch antenna integrated with a split-ring artificial magnetic conductor (AMC) metasurface for WLAN applications at 2.45 GHz. The antenna design incorporates structural adaptations, such as slotted apertures and corner truncations, to enhance impedance matching and achieve circular polarization. To further improve performance, a split-ring AMC metasurface was employed, resulting in enhanced polarization purity and bandwidth.

Simulated results are validated by measured results of the fabricated prototype, demonstrating close agreement and confirming the robustness of the design methodology. This work highlights an innovative approach to compact and high-performance antenna design, ensuring its suitability for modern WLAN communication systems. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Analysis and design of circularly polarized capacitively-fed planar suspended antenna for universal UHF RFID applications(2020-01-01) ;Boonying, KomkrisThis research paper deals with the design of a circularly polarized reader antenna with a tennis ball-shaped radiating plate that operates at a frequency range of 860-960 MHz with the center frequency of 910 MHz. In the fabrication of the tennis ball-shaped radiating plate, a small annular-ring slot was first created on a circular radiating plate, followed by two diagonally opposite large arc-shaped annular-ring slots on either edge of the circular radiating plate and then the truncation of the corners of the remaining main element of the plate. A prototype antenna with the final tennis ball-shaped plate was subsequently assembled prior to excitation by the capacitively coupled feed technique to enhance |S11| bandwidth. The prototype antenna could achieve an average gain of 6.18 dBic, |S11| covering the frequency range of 837.6-966.2 MHz, and the circular polarization of 850.6-963.5 MHz, making it suitable for universal UHF RFID applications. In addition, simulations were carried out using CST Microwave Studio for comparison with the experimental results.
