Abstract
Wideband, Multiband, Tunable, and Smart Antenna Systems for Mobile and UWB Wireless Applications 2016
Highlights
Due to exceptionally high data rates attainable with modern wireless communication systems and the app-based use paradigm, wireless connectivity through multiple and even diverse 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 compact radiating systems
Following these trends of the market, the level of complexity in the design and implementation of antenna systems and relevant radio-frequency (RF) front-ends in wireless terminals has grown dramatically, requiring highly innovative solutions. This special issue is intended to reflect current research trends and novel approaches in the analysis and synthesis of antenna systems and associated RF front-ends for generations of mobile communication devices, applicable to various device forms such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and wearable computers, as well as for UWB communication systems and radars, including the ones adopted in the automotive industry
Summary
Due to exceptionally high data rates attainable with modern wireless communication systems and the app-based use paradigm, wireless connectivity through multiple and even diverse air interfaces has become a common requirement in the RF architecture of mobile communication devices. Vehicular communication systems, in order to provide safety warnings and traffic information, employ dedicated short-range communication devices that are intended to be used in vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-infrastructure communications, thereby enabling the use of cloud-based applications Following these trends of the market, the level of complexity in the design and implementation of antenna systems and relevant radio-frequency (RF) front-ends in wireless terminals has grown dramatically, requiring highly innovative solutions. This special issue is intended to reflect current research trends and novel approaches in the analysis and synthesis of antenna systems and associated RF front-ends for generations of mobile communication devices, applicable to various device forms such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and wearable computers, as well as for UWB communication systems and radars, including the ones adopted in the automotive industry.
