## Abstract We have recently shown that reverberation chambers can be used to measure the radiation efficiency of antennas for wireless and mobile terminals. In the present paper, we show that it is possible, in the same measurement setup, to measure the input impedance of the antenna as would be s

Abstract
A new method that extends the application of spherical Wheeler cap to relatively small cavities of any shape is presented for radiation efficiency estimation. We introduce a modified Huynh formulation to take into account cavity losses when they are non‐negligible for high frequencies. These assumptions are consistent with experimental results, which are based on antenna measurements in cubic cavities and for different frequency bands. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract In this paper, an arrow‐shaped microstrip patch antenna is designed, fabricated, and measured for a 5‐GHz band wireless local area network (WLAN) application. The geometry of our proposed antenna is suitable for the wideband antenna in the 5‐GHz band. To obtain sufficient bandwidth in t
A boundary element method for estimating the natural sloshing frequencies and forces developed due to an inviscid, incompressible liquid oscillating in a rigid-walled tank is presented here. The amplitude of oscillation is assumed to be small enough to allow linearization of the boundary condition a
## Abstract It has previously been shown that the radiation efficiency of small antennas can be measured with good accuracy in reverberation chambers. The results are obtained by averaging several measurements of the transmitted power between the antenna under test and a fixed antenna, both located
