    Analysis of cylindrically conformal antennas using closed-form Green's function representations
    (IEEE, 2015-04) Kalfa, Mert; Karan, S.; Ertürk, Vakur B.
    Probe-fed microstrip patch antennas and slotted sectoral waveguide array antennas embedded in cylindrically stratified media are analyzed with a hybrid Method of Moments/Green's function technique, where closed-form Green's function representations for electric and magnetic current sources are used as the kernel of the associated integral equations. Various patch and slot antennas are analyzed using the proposed method. Numerical results in the form of input impedance, S-parameters, and radiation patterns are presented and compared to the results obtained from CST Microwave Studio™ and HFSS™.

    Analysis of slotted sectoral waveguides embedded in cylindrically stratified media using closed-form Green's function representations
    (IEEE, 2013) Kalfa, Mert; Erturk, Vakur B.
    Slotted waveguide antenna arrays with dielectric covers are widely used in both military and civil applications due to their low-profile, high power handling capacity, and the ability to conform to the host platform. Conformity is especially required for air platforms where aerodynamics and radar cross section (RCS) of the vehicle are of utmost importance. For an air platform, one or more dielectric layers (monolithic or sandwich radomes) can be used to protect the antenna from the extreme flight conditions. Although the accurate and efficient design and analysis of low-profile conformal slotted waveguide arrays is of great interest, available solution methods in the literature usually suffer in terms of efficiency and memory requirements. Among the available solution methods, one of the widely used solvers are integral equation (IE) based ones that utilize the method of moments (MoM). However, the IE solvers suffer from long matrix fill times, especially when cylindrically stratified media are considered. © 2013 IEEE.

    Design and analysis of slotted sectoral waveguide array antennas embedded in cylindrically stratified media
    (IEEE, 2014-07) Kalfa, Mert; Ertürk Vakur B.
    Slotted waveguide antennas are being widely used in military and commercial applications for many decades. Low cross-polarization, high power capacity, ease of fabrication in microwave bands, and the ability to form arrays make them excellent candidates for phased array antennas in radar applications. However, due to slots being highly resonant (narrow-band, high Q) radiators, their design parameters are very sensitive; hence, accurate design and analysis methods are required for a successful antenna design. Moreover, slotted waveguide array antennas are low-profile structures, which makes them suitable candidates for conformal and structure-integrated applications. Conformal and structure-integrated system solutions are especially required for air platforms, where aerodynamics, radar cross-section (RCS) and efficient use of real estate are of utmost importance. Although the accurate and efficient design and analysis of low-profile conformal slotted waveguide arrays are of great interest, available solution methods in the literature usually suffer in terms of efficiency and memory requirements. Among the available solution methods, one of the widely used solvers are integral equation (IE) based ones that utilize the method of moments (MoM). However, IE solvers suffer from long matrix fill times, especially for matrix entries related to the cylindrically stratified media. © 2014 IEEE.

    A Miniaturized Patch Antenna by Using a CSRR Loading Plane
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2015) Ramzan, M.; Topalli, K.
    This paper presents a design methodology for the implementation of a miniaturized square patch antenna and its circuit model for 5.15 GHz ISM band. The miniaturization is achieved by employing concentric complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) structures in between the patch and ground plane. The results are compared with the traditional square patch antenna in terms of area, bandwidth, and efficiency. The area is reduced with a ratio of 1/4 with respect to the traditional patch. The miniaturized square patch antenna has an efficiency, bandwidth, and reflection coefficient of 78%, 0.4%, and -16 dB, respectively. The measurement and circuit modeling results show a good agreement with the full-wave electromagnetic simulations. © 2015 Mehrab Ramzan and Kagan Topalli.

    Three dimensional microfabricated broadband patch and multifunction reconfigurable antennae for 60 GHz applications
    (IEEE, 2015-04) Hünerli H. V.; Mopidevi, H.; Cağatay, E.; Imbert, M.; Romeu, J.; Jofre, L.; Çetiner, B. A.; Bıyıklı, Necmi
    In this paper we present two antenna designs capable of covering the IEEE 802.11ad (WiGig) frequency band (57-66 GHz and 59-66 GHz respectively). The work below reports the design, microfabrication and characterization of a broadband patch antenna along with the design and microfabrication of multifunction reconfigurable antenna (MRA) in its static form excluding active switching. The first design is a patch antenna where the energy is coupled with a conductor-backed (CB) coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed loop slot, resulting in a broad bandwidth. The feed circuitry along with the loop is formed on a quartz substrate (at 60 GHz), on top of which an SU-8-based three-dimensional (3D) structure with air cavities is microfabricated. The patch metallization is deposited on top of this structure. The second design is a CB CPW-fed loop slot coupled patch antenna with a parasitic layer on top. The feed circuitry along with the loop is formed on a quartz substrate. On top, the patch metallization is patterned on another quartz substrate. The parasitic pixels are deposited on top of these two quartz layers on top of an SU-8 based 3D structure with air cavities. © 2015 EurAAP.

    A triple-band antenna array for next-generation wireless and satellite-based applications
    (Cambridge University Press, 2016) Razzaqi, A. A.; Khawaja, B. A.; Ramzan M.; Zafar, M. J.; Nasir, S. A.; Mustaqim, M.; Tarar, M. A.; Tauqeer, T.
    In this paper, a triple-band 1 × 2 and 1 × 4 microstrip patch antenna array for next-generation wireless and satellite-based applications are presented. The targeted frequency bands are 3.6, 5.2 and 6.7 GHz, respectively. Simple design procedures and optimization techniques are discussed to achieve better antenna performance. The antenna is designed and simulated using Agilent ADS Momentum using FR4 substrate (r = 4.2 and h = 1.66 mm). The main patch of the antenna is designed for 3.6 GHz operation. A hybrid feed technique is used for antenna arrays with quarter-wave transformer-based network to match the impedance from the feed-point to the antenna to 50. The antenna is optimized to resonate at triple-bands by using two symmetrical slits. The single-element triple-band antenna is fabricated and characterized, and a comparison between the simulated and measured antenna is presented. The achieved simulated impedance bandwidths/gains for the 1 × 2 array are 1.67%/7.75, 1.06%/7.7, and 1.65%/9.4 dBi and for 1 × 4 array are 1.67%/10.2, 1.45%/8.2, and 1.05%/10 dBi for 3.6, 5.2, and 6.7 GHz bands, respectively, which are very practical. These antenna arrays can also be used for advanced antenna beam-steering systems. Copyright © Cambridge University Press and the European Microwave Association 2014.
