CHARACTERIZATION OF RESISTIVE-LOADED WIRE LOOP IN UWB (IMPULSE) RADIO

摘要

This paper discusses the applicability of loaded circular-loop antennas for impulse radio systems using a time-domain integral-equation (TDIE) method. The circular loops loaded with lumped and distributed resistances are characterized for pulse radiation and reception. The effects of the loads on the current distributions are investigated The performance of the system comprising two identical loop antennas is examined and validated by measurement for ultra-wideband applications.
