The Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) has become an important part of the wireless communication world in the past decade leading to the need for efficient antennas for In-, On- and Off-Body links. The design of such antennas depends critically on the unde ...

The modeling and design of metamaterial composite right/left handed transmission lines (CRLH-TL) is usually based on the assumption that its unit cell is small in terms of the host TL wavelength (d 0). However, it was also shown that this assumption is not ...

A dielectric sandwich loading technique is proposed to enhance impedance matching bandwidth of an antenna when it is placed close to the human body. This technique mitigates the body influence by confining the reactive fields in the dielectric loads. This ...

Conformal antenna arrays can fit seamlessly on curved 3D-shaped surfaces, which are found ubiquitously on vehicles, aircraft, the human body, and so on. Another advantage of the nonplanar structures is their ability to overcome the scan loss limitations of ...

Implantable antennas cannot be characterized by methods suitable for standard antennas because they are embedded in lossy human tissue, which affects the antenna parameters. In this paper, we consider a canonical spherical human phantom which allows us to ...

This contribution starts with a short overview on classic Integral Equation techniques for the analysis of periodic structures. Then, an efficient iterative procedure will be presented for periodic and quasi periodic structures. © 2014 European Association ...

The need of efficient antennas in handheld terminals has increased drastically due to the fast development of wireless services. These antennas should be small, efficient and cover multiple frequency bands. But efficiency in antennas is limited by fundamen ...

In this contribution, we present a miniature antenna placed in a leg bracelet for body worn applications. It operates in both the 820-960 MHz and the 1.7-2.1 GHz bands. The radiating element, based on an inverted-F antenna, occupies a 37 mm × 37 mm area an ...

This paper reports a novel methodology to design broadband orthomode transducers with two arbitrarily spaced ports carrying orthogonal linear polarizations. The component is based on a combination of two Boifot junctions through a series of power dividers ...

The design of a specific antenna for a cranial implant is used to illustrate design and simulation issues linked to implantable antennas. After a brief introduction, we will review the requirements for the antenna, and go through the design process, discus ...

This paper describes a new technology for the realization of soft, flexible, and robust antennas intended to operate in a harsh environment. One of the main characteristics of the proposed technology is the ease of fabricating antennas in a simple lab envi ...

This letter studies the frequency- and time-domain performance of a recently developed printed coplanar-fed ultrawideband (UWB) monopole antenna aiming at predicting its behavior close to a human arm. The input reflection coefficient (|S11|) and fidelity f ...

With the development of generalized connectivity and the increased use of Body Area Networks, wearable antennas have become ubiquitous in the last decade. Their design presents a challenge, as they per definition are located at the interface between free s ...

A novel single layer, dual linear polarized unit cell is introduced for a quad-band reflectarray antenna in the Ku-band centered around 12, 13, 14, and 15.5 GHz. The unit-cell design is such that the resultant reflectarray antenna can be considered as four ...
