Miniaturized UWB multi-resonance patch antenna loaded with novel modified H-shape SRR metamaterial for microspacecraft applications Article

Parul DAWAR, N. S. RAGHAVA, Asok DE

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2017, Volume 18, Issue 11,   Pages 1883-1891 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1601193

Abstract: We present the design and analysis of a novel modified H-shaped split ring resonator (SRR) metamaterial. It has negative permeability and permittivity characteristics with multi-band resonance for the X, Ku, and Ka frequency bands. Different configurations of the patch antenna have been analyzed with different orientations and positions of the metamaterial. Optimized performance was achieved with the new shape of the metamaterial antenna with an appreciable 9 dB gain, 77 GHz bandwidth, 100% radiation efficiency, and 65% reduction in active area. The second-order fractal metamaterial antenna achieves high min-iaturization on the order of 1/21. This is truly a boon in the communications world, as a sharp beam with smaller physical di-mensions is urgently required.

A novel wideband ring antenna for polarization/pattern diversity Correspondence

Li SUN, Shigang ZHOU, Guanxi ZHANG, Baohua SUN

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 6,   Pages 975-983 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2100421

Abstract:

We present a novel wideband ring antenna for polarization/pattern diversity. The proposed antenna consists of eight printed dipole elements in the form of a circular array. The arms of adjacent elements overlap for capacitive loading. Unlike traditional circular arrays, a method of exciting elements in the form of every two intervals is first introduced. We prove that this method can maintain the wideband characteristics of the antenna. Four independent feeding ports in a ring antenna aperture are designed for the polarization/pattern diversity with suitable feeding networks. As an example, a wideband dual-polarized antenna was designed based on the proposed ring antenna. To achieve two orthogonal linear polarizations with maximum radiation in the direction, two adjacent elements are extracted periodically to feed through one port. The differential feeding network and integrated Baluns have been designed to realize broadside radiation patterns, considering impedance and phase matching. Because the proposed antenna is hollow, it is a good candidate for a multiband sharing aperture antenna element. Results show that the proposed antenna has an overlapped bandwidth of 50.5% (1.04–1.82 GHz) with voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR)<2 for the two polarizations, and port isolation less than 23 dB. The measured realized gain ranges from 6.1 to 8.1 dBi, with stable broadside radiation patterns over the operating frequency band.

Forward link outage performance of aeronautical broadband satellite communications Research Articles

Huaicong Kong, Min Lin, Shiwen He, Xiaoyu Liu, Jian Ouyang, Weiping Zhu,linmin@njupt.edu.cn

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2021, Volume 22, Issue 6,   Pages 790-801 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2000445

Abstract: High-throughput satellites (HTSs) play an important role in future millimeter-wave (mmWave) aeronautical communication to meet high speed and broad bandwidth requirements. This paper investigates the outage performance of an aeronautical broadband satellite communication system’s forward link, where the feeder link from the gateway to the HTS uses and the user link from the HTS to aircraft operates at the mmWave band. In the user link, spot beam technology is exploited at the HTS and a massive antenna array is deployed at the aircraft. We first present a location-based beamforming (BF) scheme to maximize the expected output signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the forward link with the amplify-and-forward (AF) protocol, which turns out to be a phased array. Then, by supposing that the FSO feeder link follows Gamma-Gamma fading whereas the mmWave user link experiences shadowed Rician fading, we take the influence of the into account, and derive the closed-form expression of the (OP) for the considered system. To gain further insight, a simple asymptotic OP expression at a high SNR is provided to show the diversity order and coding gain. Finally, numerical simulations are conducted to confirm the validity of the theoretical analysis and reveal the effects of s on the system outage performance.

A Thermo-Tunable Metamaterial as an Actively Controlled Broadband Absorber Article

Xiao-Chang Xing, Yang Cao, Xiao-Yong Tian, Lingling Wu

Engineering 2023, Volume 20, Issue 1,   Pages 143-152 doi: 10.1016/j.eng.2022.04.028

Abstract:

Metamaterials have attracted increasing attention in recent years due to their powerful abilities in manipulating electromagnetic (EM) waves. However, most previously reported metamaterials are unable to actively control full-band EM waves. In this paper, we propose a thermo-tunable broadband metamaterial (T-TBM) using paraffin-based composites (PD-Cs) with different phase transition temperatures. Active control of the T-TBM reflection loss peaks from low to high frequency is realized by manipulating the solid–liquid state of the PD-Cs at different phase transition temperatures. The absorption peak bandwidth (where the reflection loss value is less than −30 dB) can be changed, while the broad bandwidth absorption (where the reflection loss value is less than −10 dB) is satisfied by adjusting the temperature of the T-TBM. It is shown that the stagnation of the phase transition temperature of the PD-Cs in the T-TBM provides a time window for actively controlling the EM wave absorption response under different thermal conditions. The device has a broad application prospect in the fields of EM absorption, intelligent metamaterials, multifunctional structural devices, and more.

Strategic Study of CAE 2009, Volume 11, Issue 2,   Pages 75-81

Abstract:

To analyze the time- hopping (TH) impulse radio Ultra- Wideband (UWB) transmission performance in the presence of multipath, a model for Bit Error Rate (BER) analysis of UWB systems with coherent demodulation in the presence of inter- symbol interference, intra- symbol multipath interference , and multiple access interference is proposed by studying the statistics of multipath channel models, which is defined by the IEEE 802.15.3a Task Group, and then through calculating the variance of intra- symbol interference, inter- symbol interference and multiuser interference, system BER formulation is obtained and verified in comparison with computer simulations. By analyzing the average multipath interval and comparing BERs with and without intra- symbol interference , the results show that intra- symbol interference should not be neglected. Finally, to satisfy BER requirement, in various channel environments, the maximum transmission data rate is analyzed by both considering and neglecting intra- symbol interference in single user system, and the maximum average transmission data rate is analyzed corresponding to different user numbers in multi- user system .

Wei E. I. LIU, Zhi Ning CHEN, Xianming QING

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2020, Volume 21, Issue 1,   Pages 27-38 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1900473

Abstract: A metasurface (MTS) can be characterized in terms of dispersion properties of guided waves and surface waves. By engineering the rich dispersion relations, setting particular boundary conditions, and selecting proper excitation schemes, multiple adjacent resonance modes can be excited to realize the wideband operation of low-profile MTS antennas. We introduce the op-erating principles of typical dispersion-engineered MTS antennas, and review the recent progress in dispersion-engineered MTS antenna technology. The miniaturization, circular polarization, beam-scanning, and other functionalities of MTS antennas are discussed. The recent development of MTS antennas has not only provided promising solutions to the wideband and low-profile antenna design but also proven great potential of MTS in developing innovative antenna technologies.

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 2,   Pages 346-350 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2000513

Abstract: A wideband power amplifier is one of the key components in mobile communication systems and radar systems because it is a key component of radio frequency (RF) front-end systems, and its performance occupies a dominant position in the entire system function. GaN as the representative of the third generation of wide band gap semiconductors has the advantages of wide band gap, high electron mobility, and high breakdown field strength (Mishra et al., 2008; Millán et al., 2014). The power density of the device far exceeds that of Si and GaAs. Because of its high frequency, high power, high efficiency, high temperature resistance, high radiation resistance, and other excellent characteristics, GaN MMICs have broad application prospects in the microwave and millimeter wave bands.

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2021, Volume 22, Issue 12,   Pages 1551-1684 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2100525

Abstract: We present a low-power inductorless wideband differential using a 0.13-μm SiGe BiCMOS process for a . With a shunt–shunt feedback and capacitive coupling structure, theoretical analysis and simulations were undertaken, highlighting the relationship of the amplifier gain with the tunable design parameters of the circuit. In this way, the design and optimization flexibility can be increased, and a required gain can be achieved even without an accurate cryogenic device model. To realize a flat terminal impedance over the frequency of interest, an RC shunt compensation structure was employed, improving the amplifier’s closed-loop stability and suppressing the amplifier overshoot. The -parameters and transient performance were measured at room temperature (300 K) and cryogenic temperature (4.2 K). With good input and output matching, the measurement results showed that the amplifier achieved a 21-dB gain with a 3-dB bandwidth of 1.13 GHz at 300 K. At 4.2 K, the gain of the amplifier can be tuned from 15 to 24 dB, achieving a 3-dB bandwidth spanning from 120 kHz to 1.3 GHz and consuming only 3.1 mW. Excluding the chip pads, the amplifier chip core area was only about 0.073 mm.

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2020, Volume 21, Issue 1,   Pages 97-115 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1900491

Abstract: With a lot of millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) applications being issued, wideband circuits and systems have attracted much attention because of their strong applicability and versatility. In this paper, four transformer-based ultra-wideband mm-Wave circuits demonstrated in CMOS technologies are reviewed from theoretical analysis, implementation, to performance. First, we introduce a mm-Wave low-noise amplifier with transformer-based Gm-boosting and pole-tuning techniques. It achieves wide operating bandwidth, low noise figure, and good gain performance. Second, we review an injection-current-boosting tech-nique which can significantly increase the locking range of mm-Wave injection-locked frequency triplers. Based on the injection- locked principle, we also discuss an ultra-wideband mm-Wave divider with the transformer-based high-order resonator. Finally, an E-band up-conversion mixer is presented; using the two-path transconductance stage and transformer-based load, it obtains good linearity and a large operating band.

A compact ultra-wideband crossed-dipole antenna for 2G/3G/4G/IMT/5G customer premise equipment applications Correspondences

Jingli GUO, Lun CUI, Ying LIU, Baohua SUN, Xiaofeng LI,guojl@xidian.edu.cn,ID_CLXX@163.com

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2022, Volume 23, Issue 2,   Pages 339-345 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2000456

Abstract: A compact ultra-wideband crossed-dipole antenna is proposed for 2G/3G/4G/IMT/5G customer premise equipment (CPE) applications. The arms of the crossed-dipole antenna are formed by step-shaped patches, and a wideband operation can be realized by properly selecting the order of the step-shaped patches; its bandwidth can be further enhanced by extending the end of crossed dipole downward. Each dipole is excited by a microstrip stub that is directly connected to a coaxial cable. Furthermore, a slotted rectangular parasitic patch is added beneath the crossed dipoles to further support a 5G sub-6-GHz band without additional space cost. The test results for the prototype of the proposed antenna show that the crossed-dipole antenna has a bandwidth of 147.3% (0.77–5.07 GHz) for return loss lower than 10 dB and an isolation higher than 20 dB between two ports.

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2021, Volume 22, Issue 12,   Pages 1551-1684 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.2100139

Abstract: A metasurface unit is designed operating at 2–20 GHz to enhance the gain and radiation performance of an . The unit has a simple structure, stable performance, high permittivity, and can independently modulate two polarization modes electromagnetic waves. We analyze the current distribution on the unit and extract equivalent characteristic parameters to verify the ability of independent modulation on two polarization modes electromagnetic waves. The designed metasurface unit is integrated into the aperture of the AVA and forms the for guiding the propagation of electromagnetic waves. Two types of ML are proposed and integrated into the AVA to design antennas Ant1 and Ant2. The modulation effect of the lens on the electromagnetic wave is analyzed from the perspective of electric field amplitude and phase, and the final design is obtained. From the optimized design results, the AVA and the proposed Ant2 are fabricated and measured, and the measurement results are in good agreement with the simulation ones. The impedance bandwidth measured by Ant2 basically covers the 2–18 GHz frequency band. Compared with the conventional AVA, the gain of the proposed Ant2 is increased by 0.6–3.7 dB, the sidelobe level is significantly reduced, and the directivity has also been clearly improved.
