Low-profile dual-polarized UHF array antenna

Published in:
2010 IEEE Int. Symp. on Phased Array Systems & Technology, 12 October 2010, p. 599-602.

Summary

A low-profile dual-polarized UHF array antenna has been developed for wide field-of-view dual sector coverage in the 250 to 450 MHz frequency range for communications or radar applications. The antenna utilizes a pair of parasitically-tuned dipole arrays for horizontal polarization and a pair of parasitically-tuned monopole arrays for vertical polarization, and both arrays are mounted on a common ground plane. The thickness of the antenna is 18.2 cm. Numerical electromagnetic simulations were used to analyze and optimize the antenna parameters prior to fabrication. Measurements of the dual-polarized prototype in an anechoic chamber demonstrate the antenna?s return loss and dual-polarized radiation gain pattern performance.

Ultrawideband VHF/UHF dipole array antenna

Published in:
2010 IEEE Int. Symp. on Phased Array Systems, 12 October 2010, pp. 79-82.

Summary

A linearly-polarized ultrawideband dipole array antenna has been developed for coverage in the VHF/UHF frequency range for communications or radar applications. The antenna design utilizes a horizontally polarized array of thick tubular dipole elements above a ground plane. Numerical electromagnetic simulations were used to analyze and optimize the antenna parameters prior to fabrication. Measurements of a 24-element ultrawideband dipole array prototype in an anechoic chamber demonstrate the antenna's return loss and gain pattern performance over a wide bandwidth.

Ultra-wideband offset bicone/dipole antenna: simulations and measurements

Author:
Published in:
Ann. Rev. of Progress in Applied Computational Electromagnetics, 8-12 March 2009.

Summary

An ultrawideband (UWB) antenna has been developed for operation in the 60 MHz to 18 GHz frequency range. This antenna is a new type--an offset bicone/dipole design that allows for vertically polarized omnidirectional coverage over an instantaneous 300:1 bandwidth. Numerical electromagnetic simulations with the finite-element method (FEM) were used to investigate the antenna concept and optimize geometry prior to fabrication. Measurements both outdoors and in an anechoic chamber confirm the antenna's performance.
