A novel, low-profile, vertically-polarized UWB antenna for WBAN

Anja Skrivervik, Jean-François Zürcher, Mohsen Koohestani

This paper proposes a novel, low-profile UWB antenna for wireless body area network (WBAN) applications. The antenna has a polarization perpendicular to the body-free-space interface, which is interesting in order to minimize the coupling into the body. It ...

Novel thin and compact H-plane SIW horn antenna

Juan Ramon Mosig, Jean-François Zürcher, Marc Esquius Morote

The substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology allows to construct several types of commonly used antennas in a planar way. However, some practical constraints limit their performances when frequencies below 20 GHz are considered. In the case of SIW h ...

A printed transition for matching improvement of SIW horn antennas

Juan Ramon Mosig, Jean-François Zürcher, Marc Esquius Morote, Benjamin Fuchs

The substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology allows to construct several types of commonly used antennas in a planar way. However, frequency limitations associated to commercial substrates appear in the implementation of certain types of antennas, e ...
