Journal ArticleDOI
Accurate DOA estimation using array antenna with arbitrary geometry
TL;DR: In this article, a universal steering vector (USV) whose locus is equivalent to the array element pattern is applied to the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation by multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antenna Characterization for Wireless Power-Transmission System Using Near-Field Coupling
TL;DR: In this paper, two types of antennas, dipole and loop antennas, were used as the transmitting antenna and the receiving antenna for electrical near-field coupling and for magnetic nearfield coupling, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance of adaptive array antenna with arbitrary geometry in the presence of mutual coupling
TL;DR: It is proved that any invertible matrix for compensating the mutual coupling cannot improve the output SINR and it is indicated that the radiation pattern can be correctly synthesized in the presence of the Mutual coupling.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Long range passive RFID-tag for sensor networks
H. Kitayoshi,Kunio Sawaya +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel passive RFID tag for a long reading range composed of a divided microstrip antenna and a rectifying circuit boosting the DC voltage is proposed, in which 30 m range response can be achieved at 860-950 MHz band.

RF ID tag device
Hitoshi Kitayoshi,Kunio Sawaya +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of a stub resonance-based, impedance transformation boosting scheme and a ladder boosting scheme is proposed to overcome the drawback of conventional RFID tag devices having a short communication range, and expand the communication range to several times or more that in the conventional scheme.
