A dual port dual polarized octagonal microstrip patch antenna suitable for dual band applications is discussed
theoretically and experimentally. The antenna exhibits good impedance bandwidth, gain and broad radiation patterns.
Parameters predicted by the Conformal Finite Difference Time Domain algorithm show good agreement with the
simulated results and experimental observations
In this paper, a dual port, dual frequency, dual polarized,
octagonal shaped Microstrip patch antenna, suitable for GPS
applications is discussed experimentally and theoretically. The
proposed antenna configuration is characterized by good
impedance bandwidth, gain, isolation between two ports and
broad radiation patterns

Abstract:
A Coplanar waveguide fed compact planar
monopole antenna with a modified ground plane is presented.
Measured and simulated results reveal that the antenna operates
in the Ultra Wide Band with almost constant group delay
throughout the band. Developed design equations of the antenna
are validated for different substrates. Time domain performance
of the antenna is also discussed in order to assess its suitability
for impulse radio applications

Abstract:
A compact coplanar waveguide-fed (CPW) monopole antenna for ultra-wideband
wireless communication is presented. The proposed antenna comprises of a CPW-fed
beveled rectangular patch with a modified slotted ground. The overall size of the antenna is
30 mm 27 mm 1.6 mm. The lower edge of the band is attained by properly decoupling
the resonant frequencies due to the extended ground plane and the beveled rectangular
patch of the antenna. The upper edge of the radiating band is enhanced by beveling the
ground plane corners near the feed point. Experimental results show that the designed
antenna operates in the 2.7–12 GHz band, for S11 10 dB with a gain of 2.7–5 dBi. Both
the frequency domain and time domain characteristics of the antenna are investigated using
antenna transfer function. It is observed that the antenna exhibits identical radiation patterns
and reasonable transient characteristics over the entire operating band

Abstract:
A novel compact RFID tag employing open stubs in a
microstrip transmission line is proposed. The prototype of the tag is
fabricated on a substrate of dielectric constant 4.4 and loss tangent 0.0018.
The tag consists of microstrip open stub resonators and cross polarized
transmitting and receiving disc monopole antennas. A prototype of 8 bit
data encoded tag is demonstrated in this communication. Method for
enhancing the performance of the RFID tag is also proposed. Magnitude
or group delay response can be used to decode the tag informations
