Phased Array Antenna Handbook
TL;DR: Details of Element Pattern and Mutual Impedance Effects for Phased Arrays and Special Array Feeds for Limited Field of View and Wideband Arrays are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ambient RF Energy Harvesting in Urban and Semi-Urban Environments
TL;DR: In this article, a city-wide RF spectral survey was undertaken from outside all of the 270 London Underground stations at street level, and four harvesters (comprising antenna, impedance-matching network, rectifier, maximum power point tracking interface, and storage element) were designed to cover four frequency bands from the largest RF contributors within the ultrahigh frequency (0.3-3 GHz) part of the frequency spectrum.

Double-slot antennas on extended hemispherical and elliptical silicon dielectric lenses
TL;DR: In this article, a double-slot antenna placed on hemispherical lenses with varying extension lengths was investigated and the theoretical results were presented in terms of extension-length/radius and radius/ lambda, and therefore result in universal design curves for silicon lenses of different diameters and at different frequencies.

On the behavior of the Sierpinski multiband fractal antenna
TL;DR: In this article, the multiband behavior of the fractal Sierpinski (1915) antenna is described and compared to the well-known single-band bow-tie antenna.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding and measuring circular polarization
TL;DR: An introduction to the topic of circular polarization is necessary to promote an understanding of the propagation aspects of modern communications system design and a simple laboratory-based project is described that requires the design, fabrication, and measurement of a crossed dipole antenna.
