Abstract This paper illustrates the design and development of the Series-fed Two Dipole Array antenna (STDA) for Wi-Fi applications. The proposed antenna consists of two dipole elements of different lengths, which are serially joined by the Coplanar Strip Line (CPS). The design incorporates an alternative feeding mechanism of coaxial/probe feeding technique with balun. The primary objective of this paper is to develop the high gain antenna with array configuration for Wi-Fi applications. The performance parameters of an antenna such as return loss, radiation pattern, gain and directivity are investigated for STDA array configurations. It operates at 2.4 GHz and produces a high gain of 21.6 dBi with reflector. The STDA antenna has been analyzed for different array configurations in the formation of 1×4, 1×8, 2×8 STDA array formation in order to improve the overall gain. The proposed antenna is fabricated an FR4 substrate with a dielectric constant of 4.4 and Loss tangent (tan δ) of 0.007 with the thickness of 1.6 mm. The size of an antenna is about 105 mm × 80 mm. The proposed antenna meets the requirements of an antenna which is operating at 2.4GHz with a bandwidth of 200 MHz; hence, it is found to be suitable for Wi-Fi applications.

И.С. Фаустов, V. B. Manelis, Vladimir Kozmin et al. · Proceedings of Telecommunication Universities · 2025

Relevance. The active use of wireless technologies requires the development of controls for wireless networks, in particular Wi-Fi networks. Radio monitoring services solve the tasks of detecting, identifying and localizing unauthorized access points and clients. An effective tool for bearing radio signals is correlation interferometric direction finders based on two-channel receiving equipment and a multi-element antenna system. The development of methods of joint identification and bearing makes it possible to separate the bearings of a large number of signal sources operating in the same frequency range with time division. In this work, the emphasis is placed on the detection of target signals and the identification of source features from them. The indicators of the quality of bearing will also significantly depend on the success of these operations. The aim of the work is to investigate the possibilities of increasing the interference resistance of detecting and identifying Wi-Fi signals through the combined use of two channels of a correlation interferometric detector. Methods. The paper uses statistical computer modeling methods that take into account the presence of fading due to multipath propagation channel and the correlation of radio signals caused by the proximity of receiving antennas. Decision. Algorithms of detection, time-frequency synchronization and demodulation of Wi-Fi signals are considered. Methods of combining receiving channels in signal processing are proposed. The noise immunity of the proposed two-channel signal processing algorithms in the presence of quasi-stationary Relay fades and correlation of receiving channels is investigated. Novelty. Algorithms for two-channel detection, time-frequency synchronization and demodulation of Wi-Fi signals have been developed. Practical significance. The combined use of two reception channels for the detection and identification of Wi-Fi signals allows you to increase the reliability of radio monitoring systems by 4‒7 dB, even if there is a correlation between the channels.

Hajar Ja'afar, Mohd Tarmizi Ali, Ahmad Nazri Dagang et al. · Greater South Information System · 2016

This paper presents a new design of reconfigurable plasma antenna array using commercial fluorescent tube.A round shape reconfigurable plasma antenna array is proposed to collimate beam radiated by an omnidirectional antenna (monopole antenna) operating at 2.4 GHz in particular direction.The antenna design consists of a monopole antenna located at the center of a circular aluminum ground.The monopole antenna is surrounded by a cylindrical shell of conducting plasma.The plasma shield consists of 12 commercial fluorescent tubes aligned in series containing a mixture of argon gas and mercury vapor which upon electrification forms plasma columns.The plasma behaves as a conductor and acts as a reflector in radiation, in the condition where plasma frequency, ω p is higher than the operating frequency.From this concepts, when all plasma elements are activated or switched to ON, the radiation signal from the monopole antenna will trapped inside the plasma blanket and meanwhile when one or more plasma elements is deactivated (switched OFF), the radiation from the monopole antenna will escape.This antenna has the capability to change its patterns with beam direction at 0°, 30°, 60°, 90°, 120°, 150°, 180°, 210°, 240°, 270°, 300° and 330° at frequency 2.4 GHz.The proposed antenna has been successfully fabricated and measured with conclusive results.

Alignment-Tolerant Optical Fi-Wi-Fi Bridge Assisted by a Focal Plane Array Beamformer as Air Interface

Florian Honz, Bernhard Schrenk · ArXiv.org · 2025

Terrestrial free-space optical (FSO) links are an ideal candidate to extend the bandwidth continuum offered by fiber networks, yet at the expense of unfavorable cost credentials due to highly complex opto-mechanical setups. As a response to this challenge, we present a simple fiber-based focal plane array (FPA) architecture which contributes beamforming functionality to an FSO link that bridges the gap between two single-mode fiber ports. Through use of space-switched and wavelength-routed beamforming networks, which together with a photonic lantern provide a compact arrangement of up to 61 fine-pitched optical antenna elements on a fiber tip, we experimentally demonstrate that our FPA can assist the channel optimization of an FSO link after rough initial beam pointing. We show that favorable coupling conditions can be accomplished between two standard single-mode fibers, which enables us to successfully retain the fiber continuum by achieving error-free 10 Gb/s/λ data transmission in a space-switched out-door fiber-wireless-fiber scenario.

Teddy Purnamirza, Imran Mohd Ibrahim, Puji Prowadi et al. · International Journal on Communications Antenna and Propagation (IRECAP) · 2017

This paper presents a brief review of the development of small radial line slot array (RLSA) antennas for Wi-Fi devices. Based on the review, we concluded that some of the RLSA antennas designed and implemented on Wi-Fi devices are not optimal. Hence, this study aimed to design a small RLSA antenna for point-to-point 5.8 GHz Wi-Fi devices with an optimum design using a previously developed technique known as the extreme beamsquint technique. We used this technique to design and simulate 50 small RLSA antenna models, and then we fabricated the best model. We measured the performance of the fabricated prototype to verify the simulation results. The following measurement results were obtained: a gain of 17.28 dBi, a bandwidth of 1 GHz, a beamwidth of 300, and a mainlobe-to-sidelobe ratio of 10 dB. These results meet the required antenna specifications for Wi-Fi devices. Moreover, the prototype was successfully tested as an antenna for a Wi-Fi device.

Irfan Maulana, Nurul Fahmi Arief Hakim, Agus Heri Setya Budi et al. · 2023

This paper examines the configuration of an array antenna featuring a rectangular patch and a power distribution technique known as Dolph Tschebyscheff. The application of Dolph Tschebyscheff distribution aims to suppress unwanted sidelobes that arise from modifying the antenna with multiple elements. The array antenna consists of three rectangular elements and operates at a frequency of 6.175 GHz. Each patch element is supplied using a proximity coupling technique to achieve a broad bandwidth. The stacked antenna is constructed using two layers of FR-4 dielectric substrate, each measuring 68.7 mm $\times 50.8$ mm with a thickness of 0.8 mm. The simulation results demonstrate a bandwidth of 295 MHz, a sidelobe level of -14.8 dB, and a gain exceeding 8 dBi at approximately 6.175 GHz. With its wide bandwidth, desirable gain, and low sidelobe characteristics, the designed stacked antenna is suitable for applications in Wi-Fi 6E.
