Работа посвящена исследованию возможности повышения эфективности микрополосковых антенных решеток, которые рассчитаны на работу в узкой полосе частот. Для решения этой проблемы предлагается использовать структуры, которые образуют активные электромагнитные зоны (АЭЗ) в плоскости микрополосковой антенной решетки. Эти зоны могут способствовать распространению или подавлению электромагнитных волн, что приводит к минимизации влияния поверхностных волн, уменьшению взаимного влияния элементов антенных решеток, а также к существенному снижению уровня заднего лепестка диаграммы направленности антенны. Роботу присвячено дослідженню можливості підвищення ефективності мікросмужкових антенних решіток, які розраховані на роботу у вузькій смузі частот. Для вирішення цієї проблеми пропонується використовувати структури, які утворюють активні електромагнітні зони (АЕЗ) в площині мікросмужкової антенної решітки. Ці зони можуть сприяти поширенню або придушенню електромагнітних хвиль, що призводить до мінімізації впливу поверхневих хвиль, зменшенню взаємного впливу між елементами антенних решіток, а також суттєвому зниженню рівня задньої пелюстки діаграми спрямованості антени.

Cryptography study provides confidentiality, availability, authentication, and integrity of information by creating ciphers using a secret key. Such operations are possible unless and until the key is securely placed at some memory location. Once the key has been stolen, no matter how powerful the cryptographic algorithm is, the data will not remain secure. One more important thing is today Electronic Industries are facing several security issues like cloning of the ICs, reverse engineering, overbuilding, and physical tampering. Cryptography cannot help us to secure hardware. Hardware security is a completely different field. Physical unclonable functions (PUFs) are hardware security primitives that are used for device authentication and cryptographic key generation. Physically unclonable function (PUF) utilizes intrinsic properties of IC fabrication variances to provide a unique response of every device. PUF inherently provides security properties. PUF response can be utilized for authentication or IP core protection. This paper has proposed the popular PUF implementation on the Xilinx Zedboard FPGA.

In this work, a periodic octagon split ring slot defected ground structure for MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) microstrip antenna is proposed. The prototype of MIMO microstrip antenna consists of four similar rectangular microstrip antenna elements with a partition of λ/4 distance. The antennas are printed on a 1.6mm thick FR-4 substrate with an overall dimension of 62.8 X 60 mm2. To improve the antenna parameters, the proposed MIMO microstrip antenna elements are etched with narrow rectangular edge slit and ground plane defected with periodic octagon split ring slot defected ground structure (POSRSDGS). The proposed MIMO microstrip antenna resonates at dual frequency points, i.e., 4.1GHz, 5.9GHz with a bandwidth of 88MHz and 454MHz along with minimum return loss of −22.7dB and −19.02dB, respectively. The envelope correlation coefficient (ECC) is lower than the acceptable limit across the dual operating bands. Mutual coupling coefficient (MCC) at dual resonating frequency points are −36.21dB and −42.93dB, respectively. The simulated and fabricated results are found in good agreement and ideal for wireless communication applications.

Now, the world is holding full of smart embedded objects to improve people’s lives, business development and many applications. The use of embedded systems in the expansion of the Internet of things (IoT) is getting increases. Intellectual property (IPs) is used to design complex embedded systems which may be used to build IoT applications. Hardware security is an important aspect while developing IPs and IoT systems. IoT applications also come with serious threats and technical challenges like data security and privacy. The attackers are targeting to theft the data, do the tempering and trying to get control of the IoT system. However, the area and power consumption overheads associated with adding security functions to protect those systems. Moreover, the approaches taken to secure secret information in the desktops and other supervised systems are not satisfactory for embedded and IoT systems. Physical unclonable function (PUF) is one of the ways to achieve hardware security. PUF works on the principle of process variations. PUF generates a unique and random key which is used to secure IPs, IoT applications, RFID, etc. The three types of Arbiter PUF have been implemented on Zedboard (Zynq Evaluation and Development Kit xc7z020clg484-1) FPGA using Xilinx Vivado 2016.1

This paper presents an ultra-wideband (UWB) microstrip antenna with programmable stop band for cognitive radio based wireless applications. The proposed antenna has a simple structure and compact ground plane size of 44.0*44.0 mm2. The designed microstrip antenna consists of a rectangular radiation patch element with a rectangular-shaped element rp etched on it. Also two rectangular-shaped parasitic elements (gp1, gp2) are implanted on the ground plane that is very necessary to achieve the stop band in wireless local-area network (WLAN) band. One RF switch (SW) is inserted between the two parasitic elements on the ground plane. The function of the antenna can be changed by tuning status of the SW that make the notch band in the WLAN band (5.35-5.85 GHz). The UWB micro strip antenna is used for spectrum sensing in cognitive radio and the programmable stop band antenna with filtering characteristic for reconfigurable operation. Also, a good agreement is found between the simulated and the measured reconfigurable antenna properties.

In Earlier days software security was restricted only for the military, defense, and banking applications. Due to rapid improvements in technology, in each sector, people are using smart electronics devices i.e. nothing but the Internet of Things (IoT). Day by day IOT applications are spreading widely into the market. In IoT applications, all smart objects and devices are connected through the internet. Internet is the most un-secure medium for data communication and it is very susceptible to attacks. In such cases, not only data security but hardware security is equally important to secure low power IoT devices. Hardware Security is quite an upcoming field in the electronics industry. It deals with security in Integrated Circuits (IC). Physically unclonable function (PUF) is an integral part of Hardware Security. It is working on the concept of process variation. In this paper, the most popular Ring Oscillator is implemented based PUF and Arbiter PUF types of PUF on the Zed board (ZYNQ Evaluation and Development Kit xc7z020clg484-1) FPGA using Xilinx Vivado 2016.1 Analysis of PUF parameter is not in the scope of this paper.

Wireless communication trends are getting changed day by day. Internet of Things (IoT) is the latest running trend of wireless communication. IoT applications are very demanding in present and many more will come in the near future. IoT applications are running in insure medium i.e. Internet. Security and Privacy are the major challenges in IoT implementation. In conventional cryptography, one dedicated secret key is stored in volatile or non-volatile memory. Which has been used by the processor for every encryption or decryption Even though system is turned off the secret key is remain present in memory and can be access by attacker using side channel attacks. Thus, the traditional approaches to key storage are not favoured. Physically Unclonable function (PuF) can resolve such issues. Instead of using the same dedicated secrete key PuF can generate unique bits for every operation. Here we are presenting a brief survey of security challenges opportunities of PuF for IoT applications.

This paper presents an analysis of frequency reconfigurable micro strip patch antennas for multi-band, multimode wireless communication systems, incorporating Radio Frequency-PIN diodes as switches. Two configurations are discussed with double-band characteristics: a patch antenna with modifiable and reconfigurable switchable slots; and a rectangular patch with a electronically controllable parasitic patch element. The objective is to evaluate the feasibility of the active antenna to be used in cognitive radio applications and predict the functional performance of frequency reconfigurable antennas integrated as RF switching elements. These microstrip antennas were simulated with CAD tools and the obtained results show acceptable radiation performance. Each of the simulated microstrip antennas allow electronic tuning of the operating resonant frequency, while maintaining optimum input impedance match and stable radiation characteristics over the frequency band of interest.

The CORDIC (COordinate Rotation DIgital Computer) algorithm is an iterative algorithm developed by Volder [1] in 1959. It rotates the vector, iteratively and in finite steps to calculate Sine and Cosine of a given angle. Additional work has been done by Walther [2] in 1971. The main principle of CORDIC are calculations based on shift−registers and adders instead of multiplications, which makes use of limited reconfigurable CLB’s in FPGA efficiently saving hardware resources. All trigonometric functions can be computed using vector rotation. CORDIC is also used for polar to rectangular and rectangular to polar conversions, calculation of vector magnitude, and also for transforms like discrete Fourier transform (DFT)/FFT on reconfigurable platform. This paper presents the CORDIC Algorithm for calculation of elementary functions Sine and Cosine in IEEE-754 Format and QFormat. The paper analyses the feasibility of CORDIC algorithm for implementing the elementary angle computation in FPGA .The CORDIC algorithm is implemented using Verilog language and results are obtained from Xilinx ISE simulation.

New technologies in communications electronics, such as software-defined radio (SDR) and RF switches implemented using radio frequency micro-electromagnetically systems (RF-MEMS), present new challenges and opportunities for micro strip antenna design. In sharp contrast to digital technology where Moore's law reigns, a fundamental law of physics constrains the ability to realize electrically small antennas that are both efficient and broadband. Software defined radio is defined as a radio in which some or all of their functions are software defined. The use of SDRs to make communications has enabled the design of intelligent radios called as Cognitive radio(CRs), by making communications re-configurable at lower layers of the networking stack. The major challenge is to design small antennas which can be operated at the large number of frequency bands. By tuning/switching the resonant frequency, single antenna can operate at different band of frequencies. In this paper a simulation study of a slot loaded RMSA with has been done to verify the dual band operation at 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz.

In this paper we present design, fabrication, and experimental characterization of microstrip antenna with copper nanofilm of 43 nm thicknesses as radiating element. The copper nanofilm patch is 15 times smaller than the skin-depth of copper at 10 GHz. The proposed antenna is non-contact feeding type proximity coupled microstrip patch antenna designed for ‘X’ band applications. The antenna design is validated with IE3D simulation software. The simulated antennas are fabricated for both 17 µm thickfilm and 43 nm nanofilm patches on low-cost 1.6 mm height FR4 substrate. The thickfilm antenna is fabricated using common photolithography, whereas copper nanofilm is fabricated using RF-sputtering deposition system at room temperature. The thickness and uniform distribution of copper nanofilm is confirmed by scanning electron microscope. The radiation result shows nanofilm antenna exhibits outstanding performance over thickfilm antenna in terms of bandwidth.

Fractal antennas are characterized by space filling and self-similarity properties which results in considerable size reduction and multiband operation as compared to conventional microstrip antenna. This paper outlines a multiband antenna design based on fractal concepts. Fractal antennas show multiband behavior due to self-similarity in their structure. The plus shaped fractal antenna has been designed on a substrate of dielectric constant EURr = 4.4 and thickness 1.6mm. The proposed antenna is characterized by a compact size and it is microstrip feed fractal patch of order 1/3. It is observed that the antenna is radiating at multiple resonant frequencies. The resonant frequency is reduced from 2.2 GHz to 900 MHz after I & II iterations respectively. Thus considerable size reduction of 81.77% & overall bandwidth of 12.92% are achieved. The proposed antenna is simulated using the method of moment based commercial software (IE3D) and it is found that simulated results are in good agreement with the experimental results.

A low profile omni-directional and circularly polarized one pair inclined slot microstrip antenna (ISMSA) and V-slot microstrip antenna (VSMSA) are proposed. The one pair ISMSA gives left-hand circular polarization (LHCP), right-hand circular polarization (RHCP), and nearly omni-directional radiation pattern. However, by modifying the inclined slots of ISMSA in the form of V, the antenna gives improved omni-directional radiation pattern with LHCP and RHCP. The design concept of these antennas is given and the experimental results are discussed. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this article, compact broadband dual-frequency slot-loaded rectangular microstrip antenna with meandering slots in the ground plane and their stacking is presented. Here, first a single-layer slot-loaded rectangular microstrip antenna with three identical narrow meandering slots in the ground plane (SLRMSA-MSGP) has been studied. By meandering slot-loaded rectangular microstrip antenna with meandering slots in the ground plane, dual frequency compact broadband operation has been achieved. The antenna resonates for dual frequency with a size reduction of 50 and 30% having an enhanced bandwidth of 12 and 4.5%, respectively. Again to further enhance the bandwidth, a meandered rectangular patch (using three slits) is stacked on the single-layer optimized SLRMSA-MSGP with meandering slits of the top patch in opposite-phase with the ground plane meandering slots. Here, the lower frequency of the antenna has been further slightly lowered with a significant enhancement in the bandwidth. Using this configuration, the antenna resonates for compact dual frequency with a size reduction of 54 and 32.3% having an enhanced bandwidth of 16.8% and 3% respectively. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this paper, microstrip-line-fed rectangular microstrip antenna with open-end meandering slots in the ground plane for compact broadband operation is presented. The proposed design consists of a rectangular patch which is fed by a 50-Ω center fed microstrip-line feed. Three identical narrow open-end meandering slots were embedded in the antenna's ground plane parallel to the rectangular patch's radiating edge. Experimental study is carried out by varying the length of the open-end meandering slots. Using open-end meandering slots in the ground plane, the resonant frequency of the antenna is greatly lowered with large enhancement in bandwidth when compared with conventional microstrip antenna. With the proposed design, an extreme reduction of 82.9% in the antenna size is obtained with a wide bandwidth of 40%. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

In this paper, compact L-shaped notched printed antennas with dual slits for multiband and wideband applications are presented. Here, an L-shaped notch is cut on one side of the nonradiating edge of the rectangular patch with dual narrow slits cut on the other side. This patch is kept 2 mm away from the ground plane. The size of the ground plane is taken to be 38 × 10.8 mm2. Here, the study consists of the study of the proposed antenna with two types of ground planes, one with rectangular ground plane and the other with modified ground plane. Using rectangular ground plane, wideband and multiband operation is achieved with overall bandwidth of 6.84 GHz (110%). Again, by using modified ground plane, the overall bandwidth of the antenna is further increased to 7.86 GHz (114.5%). Moreover, the overall size of the proposed antennas is quite compact i.e., 38 × 38 mm2. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This paper compares the performance of microstrip antenna array using two feeding techniques. The feeding techniques are the corporate feeding and the series feeding. The antenna arrays have been designed and simulated using Mentor Graphics IE3D Simulation Software. The dielectric used to design the antennas is the FR-4 glass epoxy with a dielectric constant of 4.2 and loss tangent of 0.0245. The antenna arrays have been designed at a resonant frequency of 2 GHz. The four element antenna array designed using corporate feeding technique showed superior performance compared to that designed using series feeding technique. A gain of 4.14 dB and a bandwidth of 85.81 MHz have been obtained using the corporate feeding method and the corresponding values obtained using the series feeding method are 3.86 dB and 77.43 MHz. The antenna arrays designed find applications in the L band of the microwave frequency region. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a method of improving the impedance bandwidth of two-element equilateral triangular microstrip patch antenna (TEETMPA) using aperture coupled feeding technique. The practical results show an enhancement in impedance bandwidth of TEETMPA compared to the impedance bandwidth of two-element conventional equilateral triangular microstrip patch antenna (TECETMPA). By loading rectangular parasitic element in the form of gap-coupling between the two triangular radiating patches in TEETMPA and inserting a slot in the parasitic element, further enhancement in the impedance bandwidth of the antenna by 1.61 times more when compared to TECETMPA and 1.404 times more when compared to TEETMPA is obtained. Proposed antennas may find applications in microwave systems. The design concepts and practical results of these antennas are discussed.
