    Design of square patch antenna with a notch on FR4 substrate
    (2008) Bhardwaj, D.; Bhatnagar, D.; Sancheti, S.; Soni, B.
    Simulation and measured results of a square patch antenna with a notch to search their possible application on modern communication systems including WiMax systems are presented. The antennas are designed on an FR4 substrate and the notch angle is varied under different conditions. It is found that on varying the notch angle from 180° to 164°, antennas resonate at a single frequency but on reducing the notch angle further, antennas start resonating at two frequencies with improved bandwidth. The optimum performance of an antenna is obtained when the notch angle is set to 151°. Different radiation parameters of the antennas under varying conditions are analysed and their possible applications in modern communication systems are investigated. © 2008 The Institution of Engineering and Technology.

    Design and development of SiGe HBT based high gain amplifier for GPS application
    (2008) Soni, B.; Ramasubramanian, R.; Sancheti, S.
    A two stage high gain small signal amplifier for GPS based receiver application is designed and realised using SiGe Hetrojunction Bipolar transistor (HBT). The measured gain and noise figure is 33.5 dB and 2.9dB respectively at Vce of 2 V, and total current of 10mA. The circuit is fabricated on microstrip configuration using RT duroid substrate of dielectric constant 10.5 and height 50 mils. This circuit is being used in satellite based GPS receiver. © 2008 IEEE.

    Radiations from double notched square patch antenna on FR4 substrate
    (2008) Bhardwaj, D.; Bhatnagar, D.; Sancheti, S.; Soni, B.
    This paper presents the radiation performance of a square patch antenna having two triangular notches on opposite edges designed on glass epoxy FR4 substrate and its performance is compared with a simple square patch antenna without any notch. The simulated results for this antenna are obtained by varying notch angle and compared with the measured results. The results indicate that square patch antenna with both notch angles equal to 168o resonates not only at two different frequencies but also offers a much higher bandwidth in comparison to a normal square patch (without notches). Both these resonance frequencies lie in the median band (3.25 to 3.85 GHz) allotted by IEEE 802.16 working group for WiMAX systems. The performance of antenna is optimized considering different conditions to obtain an antenna with dual band and high bandwidth performance. The radiation patterns, gain and radiation efficiency of antenna are also determined. © 2008 SBMO/SBMag.

    Design and analysis of a gap coupled split circular patch with elliptical slot filled with elliptical patch
    (2010) Bhardwaj, D.; Sharma, K.; Bhatnagar, D.; Sancheti, S.; Soni, B.
    The paper presents radiation performance of a gap coupled split circular patch with elliptical slot filled with elliptical patch. Initially, a circular elliptical ring slot antenna is taken and it is modified step by step to achieve an end product with desired performance. The performance of designed antenna after each step is presented systematically. The simulated and measured results of proposed antenna are compared with that of a circular elliptical ring slot antenna. The gap between two gap-coupled semi circular elliptical ring structures and the length of major and minor axis of inserted inner elliptical patch are optimized to achieve best performance. It is observed that with proposed modifications in circular patch geometry, impedance bandwidth, gain and radiation efficiency of antenna are improved considerably. The resonance frequency of end product is lower than that of a circular elliptical ring slot antenna which indicates that for achieving identical resonance frequencies from circular elliptical ring slot antenna and modified circular patch geometry, effective patch size of modified antenna must be reduced. The outcome results into a further compact circular patch antenna with much improved performance.
