Abstract
Wideband, Multiband, Tunable, and Smart Antenna Systems for Mobile and UWB Wireless Applications 2014
Highlights
With the advent of high data rate 3G and 4G wireless communication systems and the app-based use paradigm, wireless connectivity through multiple air interfaces has become a common requirement in the RF architecture of mobile communication devices
Ultrawideband (UWB) systems used in short range communications, remote sensing, and through-the-wall radar imaging have introduced a new paradigm in the antenna design where the mitigation of pulse distortion is of the essence, requiring a shift in antenna design approach and the introduction of novel radiating systems
Important efforts have been devoted to the characterization of the radio channel as well as to the most innovative near-field-farfield transformation techniques employed to determine the radiation properties of the antennas employed in the modern wireless communication systems
Summary
With the advent of high data rate 3G and 4G wireless communication systems and the app-based use paradigm, wireless connectivity through multiple air interfaces has become a common requirement in the RF architecture of mobile communication devices. Ultrawideband (UWB) systems used in short range communications, remote sensing, and through-the-wall radar imaging have introduced a new paradigm in the antenna design where the mitigation of pulse distortion is of the essence, requiring a shift in antenna design approach and the introduction of novel radiating systems. This special issue is intended to reflect current R&D trends and novel approaches in the analysis and synthesis of antenna systems and associated RF front-ends for generation mobile communication devices, applicable to various device form factors such as smartphones, tablets, laptops and wearable computers as well as for UWB communication systems and radars. The special issue is composed of 19 contributions that can be divided into the following 9 clusters
