Abstract:
A novel design of a computer electronically reconfigurable dual frequency dual polarized single feed hexagonal slot loaded microstrip antenna in L-band is introduced in this chapter. pin diodes are used to switch the operating frequencies considerably without much affecting the radiation characteristics and gain. the antenna can work with a frequency ratio varying in the wide range from 1.2 to 1.4. the proposed design has an added advantage of size reduction up to 72.21% and 46.84% for the two resonating frequencies compared to standard rectangular patches. the design also gives considerable bandwidth of up to 2.82% and 2.42 % for the operating frequencies.

Abstract:
A novel compact wideband antenna for wireless local area network
(WLAN) applications in the 2.4 GHz band is presented. The proposed
low profile antenna of dimensions 15 x 14.5 x 1.6 mm offers 18.6%
bandwidth and an average gain of -5 dBi. The antenna can be excited
directly using a 50 coaxial probe

Abstract:
The impedance bandwidth of a high permittivity cylindrical dielectric
resonator antenna excited by a micro strip line was significantly
improved by modifying the feed geometry. The 10 dB return loss
bandwidth is enhanced from 12 to 26% without much affecting the
gain and other radiation properties of the antenna. Good agreement
has been observed between the predicted and measured results

Abstract:
The effect of dopants with different valencies and ionic radii on the densification, structural
ordering, and microwave dielectric properties of Ba(Mg1/3Ta2/3)O3 (BMT) is investigated. It is
found that dopants such as Sb2O5, MnO, ZrO2, WO3, and ZnO improve the microwave dielectric
properties of BMT. Addition of trivalent dopants is detrimental to the cation ordering and dielectric
properties of BMT. A correlation between the microwave dielectric properties of BMT and ionic
radii of the dopant has been established. The variation of the dielectric properties of pure and doped
BMT at cryogenic temperatures is also discussed.

Abstract:
A planar monopole antenna suitable for broadband wireless communication is designed and developed. With the use of a truncated ground plane, the proposed printed monopole antenna offers nearly 60% 2:1 VSWR bandwidth and good radiation characteristics for the frequencies across the operating band. A parametric study of the antenna is performed based on the optimized design, and a prototype of the antenna suitable for 2.4-GHz WLAN application is presented. The antenna can be easily integrated into wireless circuitry and is convenient for application in laptop computers.
