Abstract

본 논문에서는 확장된 대역폭을 갖는 소형 epsilon negative(ENG) zeroth-order resonance(ZOR) 안테나를 제안하였다. 대역폭을 유지하고 ENG ZOR 안테나의 면적을 줄이기 위해서 안테나 패치 위에 패턴을 새겼고 meandered via를 삽입함으로써 매우 큰 병렬 인덕턴스를 발생시켰다. 동일한 면적, 공진 주파수에서 동작하는 ENG ZOR 안테나에 직선 via 대신 meandered via를 삽입하게 되면 유효 유전율의 분포의 기울기가 공진 주파수 근방에서 더 낮아지고 따라서 대역폭은 넓어진다. 결과적으로 제안한 meandered via를 가진 ENG ZOR 안테나는 직선 via를 가진 나선 구조 ENG ZOR 안테나와 동일한 면적을 가짐에도 불구하고 1.38배의 대역폭을 가지고 있는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, meandered via를 가진 ENG ZOR 안테나는 일반적인 mushroom ZOR 안테나보다 64 %의 면적감소를 보였다. In this paper, small epsilon negative(ENG) zeroth-order resonance(ZOR) antenna with improved bandwidth is presented. To reduce the size of ENG ZOR antenna without narrowing bandwidth, large shunt inductance is introduced by adding patterns on patch and meandered via. The effective permittivity of meandered via is less dependent of frequency than that of straight via in same size. Thus, ENG ZOR antenna with meandered via has broader bandwidth. As a result, the bandwidth of ENG ZOR antenna with meandered via is 1.38 times as broad as that of spiral ENG ZOR antenna with straight via. On the other hand, the area of ENG ZOR antenna is reduced by 64 % compared with that of conventional mushroom ZOR antenna.
