Title: Electrically Small Huygens Antennas and Arrays

Abstract:
With the development 5G/5G+ communications, a massive of portable mobile devices have received prosperous attentions so as to meet the coming Internet of Thing (IoT), which has quite strict requirements for the antennas in the aspect of miniaturization and radiation performance. For instance, in order to obtain the adaptability in different application environments, the antennas are desired to be miniaturized, directional, and multi-functional. Yagi/quasi-Yagi antennas are widely utilized in engineering as directional paradigms but their electrically sizes are generally deemed large.
To satisfy the application requirements of a certain space-limited environments, a series of electrically small Huygens antennas and arrays with high directivity, wide beamwidth, low profile, and multi functions, are developed and will be introduced in this talk. These developed electrically small Huygens antennas has no ground and are quite light in weight. These design paradigms of electrically small Huygens antennas and arrays are hoped to provide a certain new and reliable design principles and methods for antennas designs with high directivity, wide bandwidth and multi-functions.
