This paper proposed a novel compact design of UWB antenna. Our design used an uni-planar EBG double-layer of FSSs to enhance performance characteristics of UWB antenna in operation frequency of 14 GHz/Ku Band. This UWB antenna occupies a compact size of 40.36 × 29.36 mm2 with space/gap between the radiator patch and double-layer of FSSs is 10 mm. W...

The 500kV transmission line is exposed to the outdoor for a long time. It is affected by complex climate charge change and other factors which leads to line connection parts bolt loosening, wire breaking and fixture damage and other line failures. In order to ensure the stable transmission of electric energy, power operators need to wear shielding...

In this work, a dual band, reduced size, enhanced gain monopole antenna has been designed by using Frequency Selective Surface (FSS). The volume of the proposed monopole antenna is 0.14λ0×0.12λ0×0.02λ0\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$0.14{\lambda }_{0}\times 0.12{\lambda }_{0}\times 0.02{\lambda }_{0}$$\end{document}, where λ0\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\lambda }_{0}$$\end{document} is the free space wavelength at 3.5 GHz. Three L-shaped loops are used to enhance impedance matching. Size reduction and bandwidth are improved due to the L-shaped loops on the ground plane. FSS is incorporated under the monopole antenna as a band reject filter. Dual frequency bands of 3.45–3.55 GHz and 4.82–7 GHz with stable gain within the operating bands are achieved. The effect of the FSS on antenna results is studied. A maximum size reduction of 93% with 68.8% (2.18–7dBi) gain enhancement is achieved with respect to the reference antenna. The proposed antenna may be used in (5.2/5.8 GHz) WLAN, (3.5/5.5 GHz) WiMAX and fraction part of C-band satellite from 5.925 to 6.425 GHz as an uplink band.
