Abstract

In this paper, a design method for a compact broadband planar monopole antenna fed by a coplanar waveguide (CPW) is studied. The proposed broadband monopole is optimized for terrestrial digital television (DTV) reception. In order to achieve broadband characteristics, the monopole and ground conductor are gradually tapered. By loading slit pairs on both monopole and ground plane, the proposed antenna is miniaturized. The monopole is fed by a CPW with 75-ohm characteristic impedance on an FR4 substrate and its size is $100mm{\times}200mm$. The optimized monopole antenna for DTV band (470-806 MHz) is fabricated on an FR4 substrate and tested experimentally to verify the results of this study.

본 논문에서는 코플래너 도파관으로 급전되는 소형 광대역 평면 모노폴 안테나의 설계방법에 대해 연구하였다. 제안된 구조의 광대역 모노폴을 지상파 디지털방송 수신용으로 최적화 설계하였다. 모노폴과 접지면을 광대역 특성을 갖도록 완만한 테이퍼 구조로 하였다. 모노폴과 접지면에 슬릿을 장하하여 안테나를 소형화하였다. 광대역 모노폴은 특성 임피던스 75옴의 코플래너 도파관으로 급전되고 $100mm{\times}200mm$ 크기의 FR4 기판에 설계하였다. 디지털 방송 주파수 대역인 470-806 MHz 대역에서 동작하도록 설계된 안테나를 FR4 기판 상에 제작 후 실험을 통하여 연구결과의 타당성을 검증하였다.
