“…An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and ground station using a dual-band, high-gain communication link where the two bands can be utilized separately for data and commandand-control. High gain is achieved in both frequency ranges by using a proposed cylindrically conformal rectangular patch antenna operating in the higher order TM 21 and TM 03 modes [38]. The rectangular patch antenna with the slot loading is shaped into a cylinder with a 25 mm radius.…”

Drones are a form of remote-controlled aircraft that can take to the air without the need for a human pilot. An increasing number of people are looking into using drones for a variety of tasks, including but not limited to operations in hazardous areas, environmental monitoring and sensing, aerial spreading of fertilizer and agricultural chemicals, disaster management and transporting goods from one location to another. Drones are receiving a lot of attention for these and other uses. A drone's position and navigation can only be controlled by the remote pilot via radio frequency (RF) transmission between the drone and the remote pilot. In order to facilitate two-way communications between the drone and its operator, it is necessary to keep a tight eye on the telemetry data and supplementary sensor data being sent and received by the drone in real time. Unmanned flying would not be conceivable without a flexible and dependable communication system. Due to the necessity of complete spatial coverage for drone communication, the antenna radiating in an isotropic pattern presents itself as a promising option for unmanned flying. Therefore, microstrip patch antenna is an excellent choice for drone applications.INDEX TERMS Drone communication, antenna design, phased antenna array, patch array, reconfigurable antenna, UWB radar, smart antenna, parasitic patch, triangle array antenna, realized gain, swarm drones, ground station and compact array antenna.

A single element and two elements array polygon shape microstrip antenna is proposed and analyzed in this paper for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications. The technique used to improve antenna performance is etching rectangular slots on the patch of the antenna with different dimensions and positions. Two Polygon Shape antenna patches are introduced to enhance the antenna properties. Also, multi-slots are reached to improve the antenna gain, impedance matching sweep parameter optimization technique is used to all antenna parameters to enhance antenna properties. The dimensions of the single element antenna are 30 x 33 mm2 and consist of a slotted polygon patch printed on an FR-4 substrate. The proposed antenna has a resonant frequency of 6.2 GHz, while the dimensions of two elements antenna array are 60 x 33 mm2 and the resonance frequency is 9.8 GHz. A technique of inset feed transmission line was utilized to match the 50 Ω microstrip feed line and the radiating patch. These considerations make the structure is suitable for fifth-generation generation (5G) mobile wireless applications. The proposed antenna was simulated by use Computer Simulation Technology (CST-2020) software.

“…For the last decade, the use of conformal antennas has been gaining a lot of interest thanks to emerging many applications of missile, unmanned air vehicles (UAVs), and similar platforms (Balderas et al, 2019;Obeidat et al, 2009;Pradhan et al, 2022;Chen et al, 2017;Khalil et al, 2019;Morton et al, 2006). The foremost necessity of using conformal antennas comes from the aerodynamic requirements of these platforms such that any antenna that has to be mounted on such platforms will almost no effect of their flight dynamics on contrary to linear antennas such as dipole or monopole (Ozdemir et al;1997).…”

In this paper, we have designed a conformal U-slot type micro-strip (µ-strip) patch antenna to be used in L1 frequency band. First, a primary design of flat, rectangular U-slot µ-strip patch antenna is designed around the center frequency of L1 band that is 1575.42 MHz. Then, this design has been converted to a conformal type such that it can be used cylindrical platforms such as missiles. The primary design of conformal U-slot µ-strip patch antenna has been optimized for the L1, E1 frequency band between 1563 MHz and 1587 MHz, and 1559 MHz and 1591 MHz; respectively. Then, antenna parameters such as operation bandwidth and the radiation pattern were reported based on the optimized simulation results for this stand-alone conformal antenna. Finally, this antenna has been put on a missile model and the antenna simulation is repeated to validate the effectiveness and the usability of this antenna on a realistic platform and the scenario. The CST simulation of the final optimized conformal U-slot type µ-strip patch antenna mounted on the missile model has shown that this antenna is effectively operation between 1.5442 and 1.6077 GHz such that it can conveniently be used for Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) applications of L1 and E1 band.
