3 Motivation Over The Air (OTA) Test Characterize the air interference of a mobile device. Need a measurement system that can collect data on a spherical surface enclosing the DUT. Broadband antenna Circular Polarized GSM,UMTS & Higher order modes Unknown DUT Polarization Planar Spiral Antenna Conical Spiral Antenna Cross Log-periodic Antenna Balance feeding Unidirectional pattern 3
4 Introduction Frequency Independent Antenna The antenna characteristics are invariant to change of the physical size of antenna. Frequency Independent Antenna Principles: Angle principle Truncation principle Periodic principle Z 1 Z 2 Self-Complementary Structure Z * Z 1 2 = Z ( ) 2 = ( Ω) Z Z 1 = 2 = 188.5Ω 4

25 Conclusion RHCP antenna worked (0.6 < f/ghz < 13) Two arms Archimedean spiral antenna was shown many desirable characteristic. Microstrip tapered balun provides a balance feeding and impedance transformation An unidirectional pattern achieved using absorber loaded cavity. The numerical results were confirmed by measurements. As a result the developed antenna worked well for OTA measurement test. 25
26 Future Work Reduce the spiral size using slow wave techniques or absorber painting at the open end of spiral. Improve and reduce balun size. Decrease the cavity depth by thinner absorber loading Benefit of the new MetaFerrite material for reducing the antenna size. 26
