Abstract

A folded Hilbert curve fractal antenna (fHCFA) which produces end‐fire radiation at the S‐band and broadside radiation at the Ku‐band without switches is presented. The measured gains/bandwidths were 1.2 dBi/10 MHz and 5.4 dBi/500 MHz at 2.3 GHz (S‐band) and 16.8 GHz (Ku‐band), respectively. This work offers a compact antenna design as a candidate for robotic applications in future NASA planetary exploration missions. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This paper describes a compact, self-complementary square-spiral antenna on a GaAs substrate with a broadside high-directivity (ϳ29 dB) frequency-independent pattern when coupled through a silicon hyperhemisphere. The driving-point resistance undulates between ϳ100 and 300⍀ from 200 GHz to 1 THz-muc

## Abstract Partially reflective surface antenna (PRSA) contains a highly reflective sheet and a perfect conductor (or ground plane) separated by a half wavelength. Usually, the reflective sheet is constructed by etching uniformly spaced patch elements on a supporting dielectric. In this article, a
