In this paper, a single layer Coplanar Waveguide-fed microstrip patch antenna array is presented for biomedical applications. The proposed antenna array is realized on a transparent and flexible Polyethylene Terephthalate substrate, has 1x4 radiating elements and measures only 280 x 192 mm2. The antenna array resonates at 2.68 GHz and has a peak-simulated gain of 10 dBi. A prototype is also fabricated, and the conductive patterns are drawn using cost-efficient adhesive copper foils instead of conventional copper or silver nanoparticle ink. The corresponding measured results agree well with the simulated results. The proposed low profile and cost-efficient transmit antenna array has the potential for wearable born-worn applications, including wireless powering of implantable medical devices.

A novel and compact dual band planar antenna for 2.4/5.2/5.8-GHz wireless local area network(WLAN) applications is proposed and studied in this paper. The antenna comprises of a T-shaped and a F-shaped element to generate two resonant modes for dual band operation. The two elements can independently control the operating frequencies of the two excited resonant modes. The T-element which is fed directly by a 50 $Omega$ microstrip line generates a frequency band at around 5.2 GHz and the antenna parameters can be adjusted to generate a frequency band at 5.8 GHz as well, thus covering the two higher bands of WLAN systems individually. By couple-feeding the F-element through the T-element, a frequency band can be generated at 2.4 GHz to cover the lower band of WLAN system. Hence, the two elements together are very compact with a total area of only 11$times$6.5 mm$^{2}$. A thorough parametric study of key dimensions in the design has been performed and the results obtained have been used to present a generalized design approach. Plots of the return loss and radiation pattern have been given and discussed in detail to show that the design is a very promising candidate for WLAN applications.

Smartwatch is a potential candidate for the Internet of Things (IoT) hub. However, the performance of smartwatch antennas is severely restricted by the smartwatch structure, especially when the antennas are designed by traditional methods. For adapti ng smartwatches to the role of IoT hub, a novel method of designing multi-band smartwatch antenna is presented in this paper, aiming at increasing the number of frequency bands, omni-directivity, and structural suitability. Firstly, the fundamental structure (including the full screen and the system PCB) of the smartwatch is analyzed as a whole by characteristic mode analysis (CMA). Thus, abundant resources of characteristic modes are introduced. The fundamental structure is then modified as the radiator of a multi-band antenna. Then, a non-radiating capacitive coupling element (CCE) excites the desired four 0.5-wavelength modes from this structure. This method could fully utilize the intrinsic modes of the smartwatch structure itself, thus exhibits multiple advantages: significantly small size, smaller ground, omni-directional radiation, and fitting to the full-screen smartwatch structure.
A novel and compact tri-band planar antenna for 2.4/5.2/5.8-GHz wireless local area network (WLAN), 2.3/3.5/5.5GHz Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) and Bluetooth applications is proposed and studied in this paper. The antenna c omprises of a L-shaped element which is coupled with a ground shorted parasitic resonator to generate three resonant modes for tri-band operation. The L-shaped element which is placed on top of the substrate is fed by a 50$Omega$ microstrip feed line and is responsible for the generation of a wide band at 5.5 GHz. The parasitic resonator is placed on the other side of the substrate and is directly connected to the ground plane. The presence of the parasitic resonator gives rise to two additional resonant bands at 2.3 GHz and 3.5 GHz. Thus, together the two elements generate three resonant bands to cover WLAN, WiMAX and Bluetooth bands of operation. A thorough parametric study has been performed on the antenna and it has been found that the three bands can be tuned by varying certain dimensions of the antenna. Hence, the same design can be used for frequencies in adjacent bands as well with minor changes in its dimensions. Important antenna parameters such as return loss, radiation pattern and peak gains in the operating bands have been studied in detail to prove that the proposed design is a promising candidate for the aforementioned wireless technologies.
Millimeter wave technology being an emerging area is still very undeveloped. A substantial research needs to be done in this area as its applications are numerous. In the present endeavor, a rectangular patch antenna is designed on thick substrate an d simulated using SONNET software, also a novel analysis technique is developed for circular patch antenna for millimeter wave frequency. The antenna is designed at 39 GHz on thick substrate and has been analyzed and simulated.The results of the theoretical analysis are in good agreement with the simulated results.
Thinning antenna arrays through quantum Fourier transform (QFT) is proposed. Given the lattice of the candidate locations for the array elements, the problem of selecting which antenna location has to be either occupied or not by an array element is formulated in the quantum computing (QC) framework and then addressed with an ad-hoc design method based on a suitable implementation of the QFT algorithm. Representative numerical results are presented and discussed to point out the features and the advantages of the proposed QC-based thinning technique.
