Design of a Compact, Low Profile and High Gain Antennas
Antrum Ltd is undertaking a short term project with the main objective of designing a dipole antenna integrated into a pair of flat plate Frequency Selective Surfaces (FSS). The dipole antenna will be designed for low frequency band operation, and metamaterial technology concepts will be utilized to realize a low profile antenna structure with high gain performance. The dipole antenna is to be fitted with a low cost PCB balun, and the composite structure offers increased impedance bandwidth and improved radiation pattern performance. The configuration of this proposed antenna has also the ability to bring in vastly more signal and eliminate ghosting by providing an extra high front to back ratio. Antrum Ltd has also into the second phase of a feasibility study for BSkyB Group Plc into High Gain Planar Terrestrial Antenna Systems. The demand of extremely small flat plate terrestrial antenna systems is ever increasing, particularly driven by the need of discreet outdoor antennas and easy installation. Current market require small physical dimensions, low weight, and high performance devices. Conventional parabolic antennas do not satisfy all of these later requirements.
