Summary
Catalog of small antennas
Small antennas here are treated in a wider sense than generally used (which concerns only ESA), because of its significance in the antenna and communication community. However, in consideration of the latest trends and requirements for small antennas, the variety of wireless systems including wireless broadband systems and short range radio systems, demands for a variety of antennas having physically constrained dimensions as well as electrically small dimensions and enhanced functions have become urgent. Thus, describing only ESA in the modern book is considered insufficient, whereas introduction of other types of antennas such as PCSA, FSA, and PSA should be preferred, as they have been widely employed in recently deployed wireless systems. The book describes principles of small sizing for antennas, design techniques, including miniaturization, and many antenna examples. The latest design technologies include application of metamaterials, EBG (Electromagnetic Band Gap), HIS (High Impedance Surface), DGS (Defect Ground Surface), and so forth.
This chapter contains a catalog of antennas listed in earlier book chapters, providing the original figure which can be referred by numbers used in the text and figures not appeared in the text with number with A as Fig. Ax. (x: a serial number in the catalog.). The main feature of the chapter is to provides readers with some useful information for designing small antennas and assistance in selecting suitable antennas for systems.
