Abstract

In this paper, characterization of log-periodic fractal Koch antenna in series iteration and equipped with balance-unbalance (balun) unit is investigated numerically and experimentally. The proposed antenna which is deployed an FR-4 Epoxy dielectric substrate using printed-antenna techniques is designed based on Koch fractal geometry in series iteration to minimize its transversal dimension. Since the proposed antenna is a balanced antenna type, then it requires a balun circuit to be available being fed from a coaxial type transmission line. Prior to realization and experimental characterization, some basic antenna parameters including VSWR, impedance characteristic, gain, and radiation pattern are investigated numerically to obtain the optimum architectural design. Moreover, the number of antenna elements as well as the effect of balun unit is also analyzed numerically. From the result, it shows that the proposed antenna has a dimension of 120mm x 150mm, working bandwidth from 0.7GHz"“2.6GHz for VSWR < 2, and overall gain of more than 6dB for frequency range > 1.6GHz.

Abstract

This paper presents the development of a two-stage low noise amplifier (LNA) operating at the S-band frequency that is implemented using the non-simultaneous conjugate match (NSCM) technique. The motivation of this work was to solve the issue of the gain of LNAs designed using the most commonly used technique, i.e. simultaneous conjugate match (SCM), which often produce an increase of other parameter values, i.e. noise figure and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR). Prior to hardware implementation, the circuit simulation software Advanced Design System (ADS) was applied to design the two-stage S-band LNA and to determine the desired trade-off between its parameters. The proposed two-stage S-band LNA was deployed on an Arlon DiClad527 using a bipolar junction transistor (BJT), type BFP420. Meanwhile, to achieve impedances that match the two-stage S-band LNA circuit, microstrip lines were employed at the input port, the interstage, and the output port. Experimental characterization showed that the realized two-stage S-band LNA produced a gain of 22.77 dB and a noise figure of 3.58 dB at a frequency of 3 GHz. These results were 6.1 dB lower than the simulated gain and 0.76 dB higher than the simulated noise figure respectively.

Abstract

Radar merupakan sistem pemancar dan penerima gelombang elektromagnetik untuk mendeteksi, mengukur jarak dan membuat peta benda benda seperti pesawat terbang, kapal laut, kendaran bermotor dan informasi cuaca. Salah satu kendala yang dihadapi pada sistem radar adalah sinyal pantulan yang memiliki daya yang rendah sehingga kualitas penerimaan menjadi kurang baik. Untuk mengatasi kendala tersebut dibutuhkan penguat daya pada sistem penerima yaitu Low Noise Amplifier (LNA). Oleh karena itu, tulisan ini memaparkan perancangan LNA dengan menggunakan teknik Non Simultaneous Conjugate Match (NSCM) untuk aplikasi radar S-Band. Teknik ini memberikan kemudahan dalam menentukan nilai trade off (TO) untuk nilai gain, noise figure (NF) dan Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) yang diinginkan. Dalam proses perancangannya, perangkat lunak Agilent Design System (ADS) 2011 digunakan untuk mendapatkan hubungan antara lingkaran gain, lingkaran NF, lingkaran VSWR, dan lingkaran mismatch factor (M). Dari hubungan tersebut diperoleh nilai impedansi masukan dan keluaran dari komponen aktif. Dalam tulisan ini, LNA dirancang dua tingkat untuk mendapatkan penguatan yang tinggi. Masing-masing tingkat menggunakan komponen aktif BJT BFP420 dengan penguatan dirancang sebesar 13,50 dB untuk tingkat pertama dan kedua, dan M sebesar 0,98. Sedangkan untuk saluran penyesuai impedansinya menggunakan substrat teflon fiberglass DiClad527. Hasil simulasi menunjukkan karakteristik LNA pada frekuensi 3 GHz yaitu gain sebesar 28,80 dB, NF sebesar 2,80 dB, VSWRin sebesar 1,05 dan VSWRout sebesar 1,1.

Abstract

Along with the rapid development of technology, many techniques have been employed to improve filter performance by using microstrip, one of them is using a Defected Ground Structure (DGS) technique. The DGS is a technique implemented by combining various forms of slot on the ground-plane of filter. This paper presents an ultra wideband (UWB) filter designed using DGS technique by combining two kind of slots on the ground plane, i.e., rectangular slot and rectangular ring slot. The design of composed filter is initialized using filter without DGS, then by adding two kinds of DGS on the ground plane. The DGS is used to improve S-parameter values and increase bandwidth. The method of filter design is using several parametric studies, such as changing the length of patch, width of patch, number of rectangular slot, length of rectangular slot, width of rectangular slot, and gap in rectangular ring slot. This filter is fabricated on a FR4 epoxy dielectric substrate with the thickness of 0.8 mm and the size of 27.4 mm x 22 mm. The measurement result shows that the filter could produce the working bandwidth of 4.01 GHz in the frequency range from 1.52 GHz to 5.53 GHz.

Abstract

In this paper, a bandwidth enhancement technique for Substrate Integrated Waveguide(SIW) antenna is attempted using Defected Ground Structure(DGS)by modifying the shape and geometry of the slot on the ground plane. In order to achieve wide bandwidth response of the antenna, a rectangular split ring incorporated with across shapes lots are employed as DGS. The quality factor (Q) of antenna increases as the substrate thickness decreases, which leads to narrow down bandwidth response of the SIW antenna. Therefore, the SIW antenna is simulated using multiple layers of FR4epoxydielectric substrate in overcoming the problem. The SIW antenna has a dimension of 171 mm×160.5mm, 4.905mm-height,and is intended to work at the center frequency of 2 GHz. Furthermore, the SIW antenna is excited by proximity coupling method which is connected to a 50Ω connector. Simulation result shows that the 575 MHz bandwidth could be achieved by the antenna with the proposed technique, in which the -10dB bandwidth response is ranged from the frequency of 1.675 GHz –2.25 GHz and the maximum gain is6.03 dBi at the frequency of 1.85 GHz,with bidirectional radiation pattern.

Abstract

Butler matrix is a beamforming network that is commonly used in multibeam antennas because of its simple structure and high efficiency. However, the Butler matrix has relatively large dimensions. Meander line structure is a widely used approach to reduce the dimensions of various microwave devices. This paper describes the implementation of the meander line structure on a 2 × 2 Butler matrix to reduce dimensions. The method used is to apply a meander line structure to the through arm. The 2 × 2 Butler matrix with meander line structure is designed using FR4 epoxy dielectric material with dimensions of 17.9 mm × 36.4 mm to work at a 2.4 GHz resonant frequency. The measurement results show that the 2 × 2 Butler matrix with meander line structure has a reflection coefficient better than -10 dB from 1.88 GHz to 2.93 GHz (fractional bandwidth of 43.75%). The isolation of -6.15 dB, the transmission coefficients of -3.70 dB, and the phase difference between the output ports is 91.37o were achieved at the operating frequency of 2.4 GHz. The application of the meander line structure reduces the dimensions of the Butler matrix 2 × 2 by 34.54%.

Abstract

This paper presents the development of a circular ring-shaped antenna with ability to suppress higher order mode. An S-shaped is added into the ring in order to satisfy the goal of the antenna development. The upper and lower edges of the ring are excited differentially using two ports in order to have symmetrical radiation pattern. Each port is directly connected to a 50 Ω SMA connector using microstrip feeding line. The antenna is designed with an FR4 dielectric substrate with the dimension of 85.4 mm × 85.4 mm and intended to work at the center frequency of 0.9 GHz. The proposed antenna is compared with the conventional circular ring-shaped antenna to observe the antenna performances in term of higher order mode suppression. In addition, optimization is carried out by varying physical antenna parameters. The measurement result shows that circular ring-shaped antenna with S-shaped element can suppress the higher order mode frequency of 19.55 dB and work properly at the desired frequency of 0.9 GHz. The measured impedance bandwidth for the reflection coefficient (S11) below −10 dB is 251 MHz with fractional bandwidth (fBW) of 27.89%. The symmetrical radiation pattern in E-plane with maximum power density at the boresight is obtained at the frequency of 0.9 GHz and 1.94 GHz. The measured 3 dB beamwidths of 0.9 GHz and 1.94 GHz in E-plane are 99.4o and 100.5o, respectively.

Abstract

The paper deals with the modelling of seismo-electromagnetics disturbance on the crustal earth by use of threedimensional (3D) finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The model is built up by discretizing the frontier geographical region between Java Island and Sumatra Island in a cylindrical coordinate system-based 3D object. The proposed method is applied to compute and analyze electromagnetics (EM) fields of the observed very low frequency (VLF) wave used for the investigation. Boundary condition of uniaxial perfectly matched layer (UPML) are applied surrounding the area of computation for truncating the object of simulation. The investigation are focused on the propagation time of observed VLF wave and its amplitude variation between the observation point and disturbance pulse. The result shows that the propagation time is significantly affected by the distance of observation point and the permittivity of propagation medium. Meanwhile, the addition pulse associated with the earthquake influences the amplitude of observed VLF wave instead of its frequency.

Abstract

The wide spread of the Internet of Things creates the possibility of electromagnetic interference in medical devices. Therefore, it is necessary to perform risk mitigation by finding the value of electromagnetic interference through measurements using wideband and omnidirectional antennas, e.g., the discone antenna. In this research, the optimization of the S11 value of a designed discone antenna was obtained using simulation from the effect of dimensional variations in discone parameters like disc diameter, cone bottom diameter, gap, and cone height on S11 characteristics. The parameters were combined for optimization. The design was fabricated, and the S11, radiation pattern, gain value and antenna factor, and the ability to measure interference through modeling were measured. Gain value and antenna factor were obtained using the gain-comparison method, which compared the antenna of interest against another antenna with a standard gain. The optimization was successfully performed with a better S11 value. At 5.2 GHz, the value of S11 was below -10 dB. The realization of the design showed similar results to the simulation, and it was found to be able to operate in the medical device frequency range (wideband). The ability of the discone antenna improved in terms of S11 value, especially at 5.2 GHz, where the value was below -17.443 dB. The radiation pattern of the designed antenna is omnidirectional. Additionally, validation was carried out by providing gain value and antenna factor. It has been proved that the designed discone antenna could measure interference successfully by modeling interference sources as electric field sources from all directions.
