A methodology for modeling the Far field (FF) radiated by antennas subject to random
variabilities with surrogate models of high efficiency is presented herein. The FF is …

In this paper, we propose a low-profile ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna for wireless body
area networks. The proposed antenna is low-weight and easy to produce by printed circuit …

A new methodology of statistical modeling of the far field (FF) radiated by antennas
undergoing random disturbances is presented. First, the radiated FF is transformed into a …

This article introduces the design of a small (30 mm× 35 mm× 1.6 mm) band‐rejected U‐
slotted planar antenna on FR4 substrate having a relative permittivity of εr= 4.4 for Impulse …

Two alternatives to Friis' transmission equation in terms of phasor voltage waves are
presented. In one formulation, antennas are characterized by the complex effective length …

Ultra wide band (UWB) has received a great amount of interest since the decision by the US
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in February 2002 authorizing the emission of …

The first results achieved in the French ANR (National Research Agency) project BANET
(Body Area NEtwork and Technologies) are presented (Part I). This project mainly deals with …

Future advanced radio-frequency identification (RFID) systems are expected to provide both
identification and high-definition localization of objects with improved reliability and security …

The joint adoption of RFID and UWB technologies is a promising solution to overcome most
of the limitations of current RFID systems. In particular, UWB RFID based on the modulation …

The need for antenna models, both simple and realistic is more and more often expressed in
the context of UWB communications. This paper addresses this topic through an approach …
