Abstract

In this paper, a double circular ring monopole antenna for wideband applications is designed and fabricated. The proposed antenna is based on a planar monopole design, and composed of double circular ring of radiating patches and ground plane to obtain the wideband characteristics. To get the optimized parameters, we used the simulator, Ansoft's High Frequency Structure Simulator(HFSS) and found the parameters that effect antenna characteristics. Using the obtained parameters, the proposed antenna is fabricated. The fabricated antenna is measured at the operating frequencies, and the return loss coefficient, gain, and radiation patterns are determined. The results of measurement, -10dB impedance bandwidth, measured return loss is 4,530 MHz(2,510-7,040 MHz) and antenna peak and average gains for the frequencies are obtained 0.71~3.38 dBi, -3.85~0.3 dBi, respectively. In case of radiation patterns, the proposed antenna displays nearly omnidirectional radiation characteristics in the E-plane, and monopole-like radiation pattern characteristics in the H-plane.

본 논문에서는 광대역 특성을 갖는 이중 원형 링 모노폴 안테나를 설계 및 제작 하였다. 제안된 안테나는 평면형 모노폴 형태를 기본으로 이중 원형 링과 접지면으로 구성되어 있으며 광대역 특성을 갖도록 설계하였다. 최적화된 파라메타을 얻기 위해 상용 툴(HFSS)을 사용하여 시뮬레이션 하였으며 안테나 성능에 민감하게 적용받는 파라메타를 찾아내서 최적화된 수치를 얻었다. 얻어진 최적화된 수치를 사용하여 제안된 안테나를 제작하였다. 제작된 안테나는 광대역 특성을 갖는 대역에서 반사손실, 이득, 방사패턴의 특성을 측정하였다. 측정결과, -10dB을 기준으로 4,530 MHz(2,510-7,040 MHz)의 광대역 특성을 얻었으며 주어진 이득은 최대이득 0.71~3.38 dBi 그리고 평균이득 -3.85~0.3 dBi을 얻었다. 측정된 방사패턴의 경우, 전체적으로 E면은 전방향성의 방사패턴을 갖고 있으면 H면은 다이폴 안테나의 전형적인 특성을 나타내고 있다
