Miniaturized, Inherently Matched, and Scalable Folded Dipole Antennas with Applications in Narrowband Sensing
DownloadFall 2019
This work presents a novel technique for miniaturizing folded dipole antennas using a simple series reactive loading scheme that enables the input impedance to be engineered, such that the antenna can be matched inherently to either a real or a complex source impedance at a specified level of...

Theory and Applications of a Uniplanar Transmission-Line Metamaterial-Inspired Electromagnetic Bandgap Structure
DownloadFall 2015
A multitude of planar electromagnetic bandgap structures (EBGs) have been proposed for the suppression of parallel-plate waveguide (PPW) and surface-wave (SW) modes at microwave frequencies. Some of these structures have been well-modelled with transmission-line theory, however, these structures...
