  • "Eggbeater"Antenna Vhf/Uhf ~ Part 1
    "EGGBEATER"ANTENNA VHF/UHF ~ PART 1 ON6WG / F5VIF For the enthusiastic listeners or the licensed amateur station wishing to experiment with satellite transmissions without investing a large sum of money in rotators and tracking systems, here is a very competitive antenna. It will appeal to those with no space for large arrays, or for those who simply wish to experiment with circular polarization for terrestrial transmissions. Introduction This antenna was conceived mainly for high-speed digital transmission via satellite. Another reason was the need for a compact system due to the local environment of my station (mountainous region with high hills and obstacles too close to my station, no space to safely place rotative YAGI antennas). If the horizon is unreachable for RF signals , that leaves only the sky above us. To use the high-speed digital satellites, the level of signal reaching the TNC must be high enough to correctly decode the packets. For example, I mainly use an AEA/PK-96 TNC which requires at least 200 millivolts p-p at the input. To have this level when receiving 9600 Bd packets, there must be at least an S-3 showing on the S-Meter of my receiver. Design The antenna is made of two full waves loops , mounted at right angles to each other. Then coupled together, 90 degrees out of phase over a horizontal circular reflector. With this configuration the antenna is omni directional and circularly polarized. Changing the feeder connection from one loop to the other loop will effectively change the polarization between RHCP and LHCP.

In 1961 a new type of crossed dipole frequency range. This antenna was originally developed in the antenna, which used a single feed, was developed for 1930s and today is used in many wireless communication circular polarization radiation [5], Bolster demonstrated systems, including broadcast services, satellite theoretically and experimentally that single-feed crossed communications, mobile communications, global navigation systems satellite system (GNSS), radio frequency identification dipoles connected in parallel if the lengths of the dipoles (RFID), wireless local area networks (WLANs) and global were such that the real parts of their input admittances were interoperability for microwave access (WiMAX). equal and the phase angles of their input admittances This paper shows that it is possible to obtain circular differed by 90º. Based on these conditions, numerous polarization with two cross dipoles with different lengths and single-feed circularly polarized crossed dipole antennas connected in parallel by applying the Theory of Characteristic have been designed [5] - [25].

    AU0019429 PLASMA ANTENNAS: DYNAMICALLY CONFIGURABLE ANTENNAS FOR COMMUNICATIONS Gerard Borg, David Miljak*, Jeffrey Harris and Noel Martin* Plasma Research Laboratory "'• Research School of Physical Sciences ".v Australian National University Canberra ACT 0200 Australia Wills Plasma Physics Department School of Physics, University of Sydney Sydney, New South Wales, 2006 Australia * Defence Science and Technology Organisation P.O. Box 1500, Salisbury, South Australia , 5108 Australia In recent years, the rapid growth in both communications and radar systems has led to a concomitant growth in the possible applications and requirements of antennas. These new requirements include compactness and conformality, rapid reconfigurability for directionality and frequency agility. For military applications, antennas should also allow low absolute or out-of-band radar cross-section and facilitate low probability of intercept communications. Investigations have recently begun worldwide on the use of ionised gases or plasmas as the conducting medium in antennas that could satisfy these requirements. Such plasma antennas may even offer a viable alternative to metal in existing applications when overall technical requirements are considered. A recent patent for ground penetrating radar claims the invention of a plasma antenna for the transmission of pulses shorter than 100 ns in which it is claimed that current ringing is avoided and signal processing simplified compared with a metal antenna. A recent US ONR tender has been issued for the design and construction of a compact and rapidly reconfigurable antenna for dynamic signal reception over the frequency range 1 - 45 GHz based on plasma antennas. Recent basic physics experiments at ANU have demonstrated that plasma antennas can attain adequate efficiency, predictable radiation patterns and low base-band noise for HF and VHF communications.

    Progress In Electromagnetics Research Letters, Vol. 94, 141–149, 2020 Design of a Transmitarray Antenna Using 4 Layers of Double Square Ring Elements Xian Wei Chua1, 2, *,Tse-TongChia3, and Kerrell Boon Khim Chia3 Abstract—Conventional dielectric lenses rely on the accumulation of phase delay during wave propagation to produce a desired wavefront. By considering the required phase delay at each lens position, an ‘equivalent’ transmitarray antenna can be obtained. Despite a lack of curvature as in conventional lenses, the phase delay in the transmitarray antenna is achieved via a periodic arrangement of unit cell elements to bend the incident waves in the desired directions. This paper presents the design and characterization of a 4-layer transmitarray antenna consisting of double square ring elements. The gap between the double square rings is varied as a fixed proportion of their dimensions, while keeping the widths constant. The transmitarray element can achieve a transmission phase range of 235◦ with a loss of less than 3 dB. The performance of the transmitarray antenna is explicitly compared to that of a convex dielectric lens, both of which are operating at 8 GHz. 1. INTRODUCTION Transmitarray antennae consist of planar, periodic arrays of printed circuit elements in sub-wavelength lattices. They have many advantages over conventional dielectric lenses for applications in satellite communication, automotive radar, and imaging systems:high-gain, lightweight, cheap, and small [1–7]. While zoning can reduce the weight of conventional lenses, it degrades system performance with reduced bandwidth and increased sidelobe levels [8]. Transmitarray antennae are also easier to fabricate with advancements in printed circuit board technologies [9, 10], while conventional lenses require expensive machining or molding processes [11].
