    A frequency reconfigurable antenna for location monitoring is proposed. The antenna developed can be reconfigured at two frequencies with suitable polarization and radiation pattern which designed for geofencing application, thus it either can operate at 1.575 GHz band or 2.45 GHz band. The expected outcome of this work is that when the user is within the geo-fence area it will use WIFI, while when the user exits the geo-fence area, GPS application will be selected. With the use of two switches, the antenna can operate either at band from 2.335 GHz to 2.593 GHz for S11< -10 dB and from 1.546 GHz to 1.588 GHz at S11 <-6 dB. The axial ratio results of less than 3 dB is achieved at 1.575 GHz with a bandwidth of 20 MHz.

    This paper presents a radiation pattern reconfigurable (RPR) multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna with an electromagnetic band gap (EBG) for improved steering performance. The designed RPR-MIMO operates at 3.5 GHz with S11 < -10 dB, S21 < -15 dB, steered angle of more than 19° and a minimum average gain of 5 dBi at all steered directions. The proposed EBG structure improved the steering angle that is affected when the RPR is deployed as the MIMO.

    This work focuses on the switchable beam parasitic patch antenna for the point to point communication system. This concept gives more flexibility due to their ability to modify the radiation and providing multiple functionalities. This work focuses on two points directly to minimize the number of PIN Diode and to maximize its reconfiguration capabilities. First, the concept of two parasitic element is addressed. The mutual coupling effect between both driven and parasitic has manage to steer the beam to-28{\mathrm{o}}, \ 0{\mathrm{o}} and +28o different angles in a single layer. The design consists of four parasitic elements with full ground and four pin diode switch HPND-4005, five different directions have been reached which are-450,-30{\mathrm{o}}, \ 0{\mathrm{o}}+30{\mathrm{o}} and +450.

    Traditional phased array antennas rely on costly phase shifters to steer beams by manipulating the phase of induced currents in each antenna element. In this study, we introduce a 1-bit coding metasurface as an alternative to traditional phased array antennas for beam control and modulation of electromagnetic waves. The metasurface operates at 5.8 GHz and consists of digitally controlled unit cells, each incorporating a pin diode. These diodes enable binary coding states of "1" and "0" with a significant 180-degree phase difference. The unit cell, with a dimension of 0.81λ x 0.81λ, comprises two metal patches separated by the pin diode on an FR-4 substrate. Simulation results demonstrate the distinct behavior of the metasurface, with the off-state exhibiting a reflection amplitude response of 1.8dB and the on-state showing a reduced amplitude due to on-resistance. The far-field patterns obtained from the simulations clearly indicate a 90-degree change in the radiation pattern between bit "0" and bit "1." This innovative design offers a cost-effective solution for beam control and versatile electromagnetic wave modulation, making it suitable for various applications, including beamforming in radar and communication systems.

    Flood is one of the natural disasters that cannot be avoided. It happens too fast and affected so many lives and properties. Before this, most of the existing system that has been developed are only focus on certain areas. Other than that, majority of the public cannot monitor and have no idea when the flood going to be happened since they do not have any information and data about the weather condition. By having Smart IoT Flood Monitoring System, this will solve all the drawbacks of the existing system. The proposed system is suitable for cities and village areas. Furthermore, if the public has an internet access, they can monitor what is happening and predict if there is any upcoming flood at the web server. The proposed system is a low cost in design and easy for maintenance. This project will update the water level at the web server and the system will issue an alert signal to the citizens for evacuation so that fast necessary actions can be taken.

    This paper intends to design an Ultra-Wideband (UWB) antenna for future Internet of Things (IoT) applications for off-body Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN) communication. An antenna based on the Y-shaped patch fed using co-planar waveguide (CPW) line, with a full ground plane is designed. It is implemented on two different substrates, namely a 5mm thick Rogers RO4350B and a 5-mm-thick felt textile. Parametric analysis of antenna is performed by changing its critical dimensions and monitoring parameters such as gain, bandwidth, efficiency, radiation pattern when using both substrates. Besides that, the bending effects towards reflection coefficient and radiation patterns are also studied. The final patch size with the Y-shaped slot is 36 × 40 mm2 for both substrates. The antenna is capable of providing coverage for the bands from 8 to 10 GHz. Finally, the antenna designed on RO4350B substrate outperforms the antenna designed on felt by about four times in terms of bandwidth, with 3.3 GHz (7.7-11 GHz).

    This paper presents the design analysis of a compact circular patch antenna. The proposed antennas are excited through an aperture coupled feeding technique. The design of the antenna has been implemented using CST software. The analysis is done based on the antenna simulation output parameter. The reflection coefficient, gain, and radiation pattern is discussed in this work. At resonance frequency of 3.5 GHz, the circular patch aperture coupled fed antenna is managed to get the high gain, good bandwidth, and minimum reflection coefficient (S11). The proposed antenna has high gain of 8.01 dBi and a sufficient bandwidth requirement for mid-band 5G applications.

    The development of wireless systems for fifth-generation technology (5G) has enabled the use of textile antennas for a wide range of applications, and it has now become one of the world's most in-demand technology. As the number of wireless devices and users increase, operators would need higher channel capacity to deliver better possible service to their customers. This paper presents the generation of Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) vortex waves with mode 1 using a wearable textile antenna. OAM introduces a new scheme called Mode Domain Multiple Access (MDMA). OAM mode is an orthogonal mode with each mode carrying individual signals. Therefore, multiple signals can be sent using the same carrier frequency without additional resources. This allows the channel capacity and spectrum efficiency to be enhanced. The proposed antenna array comprises rectangular microstrip patch elements with an inset fed technique. Felt textile fabric was used as an antenna substrate. A carefully planned feeding phase shift network was used to excite the elements by supplying similar output energy at output ports with the required phase shift value. The generated OAM waves were confirmed by measuring the null in the boresight direction of their 2D radiation patterns as well as simulated phase distribution, intensity distribution and mode purity. The antenna covered portions of the 5G n77 band with a bandwidth of 81.7 MHz and an overall gain of 2.9 dBi. This is, to the best of our knowledge, the first work on generating OAM waves using a flexible textile material.
