Research abstract

Magnetic Flux Channel (MFC) antennas have been demonstrated to contain all the theoretical benefits of antennas carrying true magnetic currents. When mounted on conducting groundplanes, they do not suffer gain-bandwidth degradation like conventional metal-and-dielectric antennas. Their immunity to the image effect means that frequency independent and self-complementary MFC antennas conformal to a ground-plane should be able to attain the same bandwidth attained in free space by classic spiral and log periodic antennas. The proposed program will demonstrate the feasibility of realizing inherently broadband magnetic flux channel antennas by: 1) implementing MFC antennas in frequency-independent geometries, and 2) developing methods for making MFC antennas conformal to curved surfaces.
