Today, miniaturized devices require the use of antennas that are smaller than their wavelength. Wide bandwidth microstrip antennas get a lot of interest from designers due to their flexibility and ...

This 4-part report discusses antenna fundamentals and the various types of antennas used for short range devices. Fundamentals are presented along with practical design principles. It is excerpted ...

While most electronic components benefit from decreased size, antennas—whether in a cell phone or on an aircraft—suffer limitations in gain, efficiency, system range, and bandwidth when their size is ...
