    Contemporary beam-forming antenna arrays often use a large number of individual elements, sometimes hundreds or more, to achieve high gain for advanced applications like radar, space communication, and next-gen cellular networks. These arrays are complex and costly due to the need for precise amplitude and phase adjustments across the elements. The feeding network complexity leads to signal losses, reduced efficiency, and higher noise. Current research aims to simplify arrays, reduce active elements needing frontends, and streamline the feeding network, considering non-uniform, sparse, parasitic, or reflective arrays. Challenges arise from element coupling and imperfect models of high-frequency materials and electronic components. Therefore, in addition to simulations, practical experimentation remains vital. This paper focuses on designing a novel 3 × 3 element antenna array with digital quantized control. We explore the impact of quantized control on beamforming and plan to validate simplified orthogonal optimization methods with limited quantization depth. The proposed antenna array is applicable to 2400 GHz band research, including arrays with parasitic elements and switchable polarization for individual elements.

    In this paper, design of a prime-focus feed for a deep reflector, Earth–Moon–Earth space communication system is described.

  • Anotace:
    A compact three-element shared-aperture waveguide antenna array for the 24–28 GHz microwave-frequency band is presented as a proof-of-concept of an array with steerable directional beam suitable for 5G telecommunication systems. The array is intended for use in a microwave photonic link and is sufficiently steerable only with the progressively phased excitation signals of equal magnitudes. The mutual interactions between the array elements are minimized to maintain the properties of the individual elements, even if they are embedded and closely spaced in the array. The proposed concept could be simply extended by adding more elements to further increase the directivity and enhance the steering properties of the array.

  • Anotace:
    With the emergence of the fifth generation and beyond mobile networks, both visible light communications (VLC) and radio frequency (RF) or millimetre wave (mmW) systems are expected to maintain the connectivity in various environments. In outdoor environments the link (VLC or RF) availability is paramount, which is affected by channel conditions. In particular, in vehicular communications other vehicles, harsh environment, and road geometry and structure will have the impact on the link connectivity and availability. In such cases, a front-end antenna solution, which benefits both optical and RF communication links, can be seen as an attractive option that can be fitted in future vehicles. In this paper, we present the design and practical implementation of a planar hybrid VLC/mmW antenna operating at 20.8 GHz and show measured results for characterization of RF and VLC links as well as communications performance. We have used the widely adopted on-off keying and quadrature amplitude modulation schemes with different orders todemonstrate data rates of 5 Mb/s and up to 100 Mb/s for the VLC and mmW links, respectively. By measuringthe bit error rate and the error vector magnitude for VLC and RF links, respectively for each modulation we have shown that the proposed hybrid planar antenna is suitable for example in a typical vehicle-to-ehicle communications.

  • Anotace:
    There are many applications where the reception of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals is crucial. In such cases, the capability to reduce the interference (both unintentional or hostile) is critical. The proposed sector antenna offers a stable radiation pattern with no beam steering across the frequency band and good impedance matching. It also benefits from a high impedance reflector, which allows the antenna to provide broadband operation and low-profile compact geometry. Furthermore, seven of these sector antennas were placed in a heptagonal shape and combined with a broadband crossed dipole. As a result, the designed antenna system can reduce vertically polarized interference by approximately 45 dB in the required directions.

Optimization of Excitation and Geometry of Linear Dipole Array Above PEC Ground Plane for Directivity Maximization

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    The modal approach was used to maximize the directivity of the linear dipole array above a perfect electric conductor ground plane. The directivity was maximized for the direction perpendicular to the ground in which this array can produce maximal directivity from all directions by a proper excitation. The modal approach was also connected with the optimization of geometrical parameters of the array to obtain not only optimal excitation currents for the array with fixed geometry but also optimal geometry of the array. It was observed that, thanks to the presence of the ground, the currents are equiphase and can be set to be real.

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    The theory of superdirective antenna arrays was discussed. The procedure for finding the excitation currents of fixed-geometry arrays, which maximizes the directivity, termed as superdirectivity, for a given direction and polarization, was described. The procedure was based on the solution of an eigenvalue problem including the directivity and matrices of normalized self- and mutual radiation intensities and normalized self- and mutual radiated powers of array elements. For examples of a linear dipole array located above a perfect electric conductor ground plane, this procedure was also combined with the optimization of the parameters of geometry of the array as a spacing of dipoles, or their height above the ground, for various number of dipoles in the array.

Fast Yagi-Uda Antenna Optimization

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    Antenna arrays are widely used due to their properties in comparison to single element antennas. The possible achievable gain can be much higher. Also, one of the biggest advantages is the possibility to steer the main radiation beam and cover a wider area. The problematic part of obtaining maximum achievable directivity for antenna arrays is the corresponding feeding. In this paper, we use the one term sinusoidal current density excitation and more precise King’s three-term excitation for optimization of an array of four dipoles for maximum directivity. The goal of this paper is to present a new fast method for antenna array design and to compare its exactness. As an example, a four-element Yagi-Uda antenna is optimized.

On end-fire super directivity of arrays of two elementary dipoles and isotropic radiators

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    The concept of source currents of a radiating source can be employed to express its directivity in some particular cases analytically. For an antenna array, this concept can be extended to the concept of a generalised directivity based on self- and mutual radiation intensities, self- and mutual radiated powers and excitation currents of array elements. These approaches were applied to examples of the array of two elementary dipoles and the array of two isotropic radiators. Particularly, the evaluation of the directivity of the end-fire arrays, which are of special attention due to superdirective properties, was treated. Novel closed-form expressions for the directivity of these arrays with out-of-phase excitation were derived. It was observed that the end-fire directivity can be further enhanced by optimising the excitation currents of the arrays. Their optimal phase difference and corresponding increased directivity were also found analytically. The results were validated by a full-wave simulator.

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    The theory of characteristic modes is used to analyze antenna arrays. In particular, to study arrays of thin-wire dipoles backed by an infinite electric ground plane. The proposed theory is based on an analytically prescribed current distribution on the dipoles where, when compared with the full method of moments solution, only a self- and mutual impedance matrix relating excitation currents and voltages of array elements is the subject for modal decomposition. Therefore, the impedance matrix of interest has dimension N x N, where N is number of the array elements resulting in an extremely fast approach. The results of the proposed method are validated by a full-wave simulator and show good agreement.

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    In classic antenna analysis, there exist several methods of calculating input impedance when the source distribution of an antenna is known. The well-known induced EMF method, based on spatially distributed currents, is typically applied for this purpose and, thereby, serves as a reference for this research. Conversely, the spectral domain method takes the opposite approach for the input impedance and is evaluated using a far-field pattern. This paper compares the induced EMF method and the spectral domain method. Furthermore, the quality factor of the dipole antenna, based on the impedance variation with frequency, is calculated for both methods. This study shows that the induced EMF method and the spectral domain method are in close agreement.

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    This paper describes an analytical evaluation of the quality factor Qz in a separable system in which the vector potential is known. The proposed method uses a potential definition of active and reactive power, implicitly avoiding infinite entire space integration and extraction of radiation energy. As a result, all the used quantities are finite, and the calculated Qz is always non-negative function of frequency. The theory is presented on the canonical example of the currents flowing on a spherical shell. The Qz for the dominant spherical TM and TE mode and their linear combination are found in closed forms, including both internal and external energies. The proposed analytical method and its results are compared to previously published limits of the quality factor Q.

Evaluating radiation efficiency from characteristic currents

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    This study describes an effective technique for calculating modal radiation efficiency calculation based on decomposition into characteristic modes. The key assumption is that the current distribution on the perfect electric conductor is almost the same as in the case of a very good conductor, for example, metals such as copper, aluminium and silver. This assumption is verified against the conventional technique, the impedance boundary condition (IBC). The proposed approach does not require any modification of the formulation of method of moments for perfectly conducting surfaces, which is assumed for the modal decomposition. Modal efficiencies provide an additional insight that is useful especially for the design of small antennas. Taking the feeding into account, the modal losses can be summed up to obtain the total efficiency. The technique works perfectly for common metals, is fully comparable with the IBC, and can easily be incorporated into any present-day in-house solver. A numerical analysis of three antennas is presented to demonstrate the merits of the approach. Radiation efficiency of coupled dipoles, an electrically small meandered dipole, and PIFA were investigated by the presented method. The results are in perfect agreement with the reference commercial package.

On the Functional Relation Between Quality Factor and Fractional Bandwidth

  • Anotace:
    The functional relation between the fractional bandwidth and the quality factor of a radiating system is investigated in this note. Several widely used definitions of the quality factor are compared on two examples of RLC circuits that serve as a simplified model of a single resonant antenna tuned to its resonance. It is demonstrated that for a first-order system, only the quality factor based on differentiation of the input impedance has unique proportionality to the fractional bandwidth, whereas e.g. the classical definition of the quality factor, i. e. the ratio of the stored energy to the lost energy per one cycle, is not uniquely proportional to the fractional bandwidth. In addition, it is shown that for higher-order systems the quality factor based on differentiation of the input impedance ceases to be uniquely related to the fractional bandwidth.

A Method for Evaluating Radiation Efficiency Based on a Modal Approach

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    Radiation efficiency is an important parameter, especially for electrically small antennas. It can be computed directly from the method-of-moments impedance matrix, and also more generally by employing modal decomposition through characteristic modes. This advantageously enables us to study separately the effect of the radiating shape and the feeding. The proposed method does not require any modification of the Electric Field Integral Equation implementation. A perfectly conducting antenna is considered as the only input to the modal decomposition. The conductive losses are taken into account once the surface currents are calculated. Good agreement is observed for the proposed treatment of the skin effect. Verification of the method is numerically performed on an fractal antenna, a thinstrip Sierpinski curve of various iterations. A full-wave software FEKO with implemented IBC is used for comparison purposes.

    This paper deals with practical aspects of mesh generation for the theory of characteristic modes. First, we describe a tool for surface-mesh generation in MATLAB. The tool is afterwards used for an analysis of relative convergence of modal results computed by an in-house modal analyzer in MATLAB. Different meshing scenarios are selected for a dipole, a rectangular patch, and a rectangular patch with a slot, and a recommendation for a mesh-refinement strategy is given. The study is supported by a simple error analysis, considering the approximation error in the evaluation of moment-matrix elements. It is shown that the results are also applicable for the commercial implementation in FEKO software.

    New expressions are derived to calculate the Q factor of a radiating device. The resulting relations link Q based on the frequency change of the input impedance at the input port (QX, QZ) with expressions based solely on the current distribution on an radiating device. The question of which energies of a radiating system are observable is reviewed, and then the proposed Q factor as defined in this paper is physical. The derivation is based on potential theory rather than fields. This approach hence automatically eliminates all divergent integrals associated with electromagnetic energies in infinite space. The new formulas allow us to study the radiation Q factor for antennas without feeding (through e.g. Characteristic Modes) as well as fed by an arbitrary number of ports. The new technique can easily be implemented in any numerical software dealing with current densities. To present the merits of proposed technique, three canonical antennas are studied. Numerical examples show excellent agreement between the measurable QZ derived from input impedance and the new expressions.

    This paper describes the implementation of a complex MATLAB tool to calculate the characteristic modes and associated antenna parameters. The first code, written in FORTRAN, was presented in the early seventieths by Harrington and Mautz. Here, we utilize MATLAB, which is widely known and used in the antenna community these days. Because eigen-decomposition is time consuming, parallel and distributed computing is used. Thanks to the hundreds of built-in functions in MATLAB, computation of the surface currents from the eigenvectors obtained, as well as other important characteristics, are very easy and effective. The practical features are discussed with two examples.

    A new formula for the evaluation of the modal radiation Q factor is derived. The total Q of selected structures is to be calculated from the set of eigenmodes with associated eigen-energies and eigen-powers. Thanks to the analytical expression of these quantities, the procedure is highly accurate, respecting arbitrary current densities flowing along the radiating device. The electric field integral equation, Delaunay triangulation, method of moments, Rao-Wilton-Glisson basis function and the theory of characteristic modes constitute the underlying theoretical background. In terms of the modal radiation Q, all necessary relations are presented and the essential points of implementation are discussed. Calculation of the modal energies and Q factors enable us to study the effect of the radiating shape separately to the feeding. This approach can be very helpful in antenna design. A few examples are given, including a thin-strip dipole, two coupled dipoles a bowtie antenna and an electrically small meander folded dipole. Results are compared with prior estimates and some observations are discussed. Good agreement is observed for different methods.

Similarly, as predicted from the simple wire model, the radiation Q exhibits a minimum too.

A Method for Tracking Characteristic Numbers and Vectors

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    A new method for tracking characteristic numbers and vectors appearing in the Characteristic Mode Theory is presented in this paper. The challenge here is that the spectral decomposition of the moment impedance-matrix doesn't always produce well ordered eigenmodes. This issue is addressed particularly to nite numerical accuracy and slight nonsymmetry of the frequency- dependent matrix. At specic frequencies, the decomposition problem might be ill-posed and non-uniquely dened as well. Hence an advanced tracking procedure has been developed to deal with noisy modes, non-continuous behavior of eigenvalues, mode swapping etc. Proposed method has been successfully implemented into our in-house Characteristic Mode software tool for the design of microstrip patch antennas and tested for some interesting examples.

Multiobjective optimization of Fractal Radiating Structures Using Modal Decomposition

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    The paper describes in-house developed software tools for design of microstrip patch fractal antennas. As the fractal geometry is quite complex, IFSMaker application was developed purposedly for an easy maintaining of planar fractal structures. In the next step, we are using cavity model technique for modal analysis of internal fields of the patch. This simplified model is reasonably fast, so that optimization loop may be employed in order to reduce the fundamental mode resonant frequency. Particle swarm optimization is used and the PSOoptimizer tool was created to handle it. Theory of characteristic modes (TCM) is then used to refine the results. The crucial problem of use of TCM in the optimization loop is the proper sorting of characteristic modes. The sorting problem is discussed and new method is presented.

    We demonstrate the possibility to strongly modify the radiated fields of a UMTS handset by using a phased two-element PIFA array. The structure is composed of a 100x40 mm2 metallic ground plane acting as the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) of the mobile phone. Two UMTS PIFAs are located at the top edge of this PCB. They are fed by a double Quasi-Lumped Coupler able to provide phase difference in the range from 0° to 360° between its two outputs. In this way the two-element array is able to radiate different electromagnetic fields. Simulated and measured radiation patterns in the two main planes of the chassis are presented for different phase differences. It is especially revealed that the novel two-antenna structure is able to radiate vertically and horizontally-polarized electric fields in the same plane when changing the phase shift between the antennas from 0° to 180°. Potential applications are polarization-diversity techniques and Specific Absorption Rate reduction for handsets.

Microwave Antennas and Circuits Modeling Using Electromagnetic Field Simulator

  • Pracoviště: Katedra elektromagnetického pole
  • Anotace:
    Electromagnetic (EM) field simulators have become widely used tool in a design process of microwave circuits and systems. Proper usage of the EM field simulators allows substantial reduction of the design time providing reliable results. In such case the required parameters of the designed circuit can be reached even at the first manufactured prototype in spite of high complexity of the structure. However, EM simulation as a numerical process suffers from systematic and random errors similar to measurement using real equipment. Thus the setting of the EM-field simulator such as frequency range, mesh properties, usage of PEC and PMC walls etc. has to be done with the highest attention and the simulation results have to be always verified using well-established techniques. The aim of the paper is to demonstrate the selected capability of EM-field simulators with a few examples of antenna and circuit modeling. Also an issue of reliability and simulation errors will be discussed.
