COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN OF CIRCULARLY-POLARIZED CONFORMAL MICROSTRIP PATCH ANTENNA FOR TELEMETRY APPLICATIONSWu, Doris I., Rieger, James 10 1900 (has links)
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 17-20, 1994 / Town & Country Hotel and Conference Center, San Diego, California / Planar microstrip antennas are desirable in many telemetry applications because they
are small in size, light in weight, and conformal to most surfaces. The design and
optimization of circularly-polarized omnidirectional microstrip arrays using a new
software simulation tool are discussed in this paper. Critical design issues such as the
optimization of each array element for circular polarization and the minimization of
mutual couplings as well as feed network mismatch are examined. The software tool,
which consists of a novel graphical user interface and a full-wave numerical simulator
for a flat mounting surface, provides a testbed environment for the user to explore new
designs as well as optimizing existing designs. Using this tool, the design of several
wraparound arrays with different mounting cylinder radii are presented. Comparisons
between measured and simulated data for two S-band 8-element wraparound arrays are
also presented.
