A Yagi‐Uda antenna array for conformal IoT and wireless charging applications

Abstract: In this article, a flexible Yagi‐Uda antenna array is presented. The array comprises 4 radiating elements and operates at 5 GHz. The design is aimed at integration within Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO)‐based Internet of Things (IoT) and wireless charging platforms that require mechanical flexibility. The array elements are positioned back to back in a cross fashion to achieve a pattern diversity utilizing the end‐fire radiation characteristics of such high gain antennas. This technique in turn reduces t… Show more

“…Hence designing an antenna with a reasonable bandwidth is a research challenge. Huang et al, 13 Elahi et al, 14 Raad, 15 Saadh et al, 16 and Haque et al 17 are used to highlight the significance of the present research with respect to the state‐of‐the‐art Yagi‐Uda antennas and the findings are consolidated in Table 4. Foremost, the antenna development reported in this paper makes use of an optimization algorithm with higher precision compared with Elahi et al, 14 Raad, 15 and Saadh et al 16 Though the antennas presented in Elahi et al, 14 Saadh et al, 16 and Haque et al 17 have higher bandwidth, they are developed on thick substrate with non‐conformal properties.…”

Further, the research in Raad 15 demonstrates a Yagi‐Uda antenna using Kapton Polyimide material with flexible property, the antenna is limited by larger profile size and single frequency operation.…”

“…As a classic directive antenna, Yagi-Uda has been widely used in many fields, such as RFID, WLAN, MIMO system, wireless energy harvesting, and IOT [1][2][3][4][5]. A traditional quasi-Yagi antenna consists of a dipole as a driven element, a reflector to cancel the back radiation, and one or more directors as parasitic elements to realize the end-fire radiation.…”

“…In [13], it is seen that the dimension of the antenna is quite large due to which integrating in wireless devices is difficult. In [14]- [17], it is observed that the −10 dB bandwidth is too narrow and the design complexity is high. The gain is also quite low that suppresses the characteristic of Yagi Uda concept.…”
