This paper presents a novel method to evaluate radiation energy and mutual coupling in multimode antennas. Based on the theory of characteristics mode, how much each mode occupies the radiation and the mutual coupling from each feeding port is calcul...

We investigate the performance of several metallization techniques for 3-D printed antennas at 10 and 30 GHz. The investigated techniques reduce the complexity and the overall cost of the metallization process. The first investigated technique is cal...

A design criterion for a small, compact, high-aperture-efficient antenna is proposed in this study. The proposed criterion is validated experimentally through fabricating and testing two prototypes for Ku-band and Ka-band applications. The proposed a...
