Current terrestrial mobile communications networks can’t provide worldwide coverage. Satellite communications are expensive, and terminals are large and heavy. Worldwide mobile coverage requires the use of satellites providing an appropriate QoS, including polar regions. The analysis of the potential satellite constellations demonstrates that LEO one is the best solution. A new generation of low cost, small size, lightweight and global mobile coverage LEO satellites is emerging. The main limitation of the terminals is the antenna size factor, and innovative antennas must be developed to meet this goal. This paper investigates the technologies and techniques for designing and developing antennas aimed at LEO satellite communications in Smart Cities and beyond, which are especially beneficial for mobile communications in areas without 4G/5G coverage. The paper focuses on the terrestrial segment and future mobile devices, remarking the design constraints. In this scenario, the paper reviews the most relevant technologies and techniques used to design suitable antennas. The investigation analyses the state-of-the-art and most recent advances in the design of antennas operating in the Ku-band. The main contribution of the authors is a novel antenna design approach based on SIW technology. The antenna features are compared with other approaches, highlighting the benefits, advantages and drawbacks. As a conclusion, the proposed antenna demonstrates to be a good solution to meet the design constraints for such an application: light, low cost, small size factor.

“…Helical antennas are more preferred in wireless communication systems such as RF, infrared, satellite communication, etc., since they support wide bandwidths and can be produced in circular polarization [1]. Helical antennas broadly used in high-gain RADAR communication systems, in military systems that require effective spectrum use or multifunctionality, and in environments such as hospitals that are sensitive to radio frequency [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Moreover, since they are wideband, they have fine sensitivity capabilities in real-time location systems such as the Global Positioning System (GPS) [13].…”

“…The proposed helical antenna operates at 5.8 GHz center frequency to receive the signals sent from the drone. It is designed as a single helical antenna radiating in axial mode with 4.5 turns [1], [12]. It is known that a single helical antenna radiates only a certain amount of energy in a given direction.…”

High-power wide band helical antenna is designed, analyzed and manufactured in the Electrical and Electronics Engineering Department Laboratory of the Faculty of Engineering of Karabuk University. Krauss's formulas are used in the design of the proposed antenna and Ansys HFSS program is used to simulate it. After the antenna is designed, its dimensions are optimized and analyzed. Thus, the desired antenna parameters were obtained. To maximize performance and match the input impedance to that of the antenna, the diameter of the winding wire has been increased, resulting in a lower VSWR and a much greater operational bandwidth. The proposed antenna has 4.5 turns, a wavelength of 51.72 mm, a height of 58.05 mm, spacing of 12.9 mm, and a diameter of 16.1 mm. This antenna resonates at the 5.8 GHz center frequency and has a bandwidth of 2.92 GHz. The bandwidth is 50.34% of the center frequency value. The presented antenna on Teflon substrate has achieved a gain of 12.06 dB. The proposed antenna also can be used for various wireless applications such as wideband, 5G and drone applications.

Enhanced substrate integrated waveguide slot arrays for radiofrequency worldwide coverage systems

This paper presents a novel slotted array for dual-band and circular-polarized applications. Two different propagation modes within a Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW), 𝑇 𝐸 10 and 𝑇 𝐸 20 , feed at the same time two pairs of slots, aimed at different frequency bands. The pairs are properly placed to be illuminated by an only propagation mode, whereas the magnetic field of the other propagation mode presents a null. Unlike many dual-band slot arrays, this novel antenna holds the same beam tilt for both frequency bands by a new method, which is only feasible through the use of two propagation modes. A dual-mode transition, based on a double microstrip input, allows to excite both propagation modes within the SIW, and it can be fed by a novel single layer dual-band phase shifter with a different shift at each frequency. A square patch is placed over each pair of slots to increase the coupled energy per element, resulting in a low polarization loss and high performance compact antenna at 3.5 GHz and 6 GHz for dual-band TX/RX systems at C-Band.
