Textile SIW Rectangular Ring-slot Antennas for Off-body Communication
Vašina, Petr
In this paper, a textile SIW rectangular ring-slot antenna for the ISM frequency band 5.8 GHz is proposed. The antenna radiates a linearly polarized wave with the maximum radiation in the perpendicular direction to the antenna plane. The antenna is fabricated on the soft-shell fabric in the two versions. In the first version, the conductive layers were fabricated by a self-adhesive copper foil. In the second version, the conductive layers were fabricated by the screen printing on a foil ironed on the soft-shell fabric. Experimental results prove that the proposed antenna fabricated by copper foil achieves the impedance bandwidth of 3.1 % for the reflection coefficient less than -10 dB and the gain of 6.91 dBi. While screen printing antenna achieves the impedance bandwidth of 2.93 % for the reflection coefficient less than -10 dB and the gain of 7 dBi, respectively.

Low-profile directional antenna
Žúrek, Dan ; Pítra, Kamil (referee) ; Láčík, Jaroslav (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with a study of low-profile directional antennas, followed by design and optimization of parabolic reflector antenna in centimeter and millimeter band. The first part of this work is focused on the analysis of several kinds of directional antennas, mainly on parabolic reflector and on SIW technology, which will be used for final antenna realization. The next part of this project is about the particular concept of the substrate integrated parabolic antenna for 60 GHz ISM band, its simulation and optimization in the CST Microwave Studio software. The final part of this thesis is devoted to the results achieved.

SIW-Based Circularly Polarized Antenna Arrays
Špůrek, Jan ; Joler,, Miroslav (referee) ; Mazánek, Miloš (referee) ; Raida, Zbyněk (advisor)
Tato disertační práce prezentuje nový koncept kruhově polarizovaných anténních řad na bázi vlnovodu integrovaného do substrátu. Hlavní devízou konceptu je modularita, kdy je základní stavební blok řady použitelný pro tvorbu komplexnějších řad a tento blok zároveň slouží jako šablona pro návrh komplexnější struktury. Anténní řada byla simulována a experimentálně ověřena pro frekvence 17 a 60 GHz. Na základě dosažených výsledků byla odvozena metodologie pro návrh a identifikovány klíčové oblasti návrhu. Následně práce představuje techniku zvýšení šířky pásma osového poměru kruhově polarizovaných anténních řad pomoci parazitních flíčků, které jsou umístěny nad zářiče v definované vzdálenosti. Anténní řada z první části práce byla použita v simulacích a experimentálním ověření pro frekvence 17 a 60 GHz, kdy byla tato řada rozšířena o parazitní strukturu, přidávajíc další vrstvu modularity do konceptu.
