A compact wideband stacked patch antenna is presented for the applications of GPS systems. This antenna covers the L1, L2, and L5 GPS bands of operating frequencies 1.575, 1.227, and 1.176 GHz, respectively. High permittivity dielectric materials are used to minimize the antenna dimensions. The obtained antenna is of dimensions  mm. To verify the design, the time dependence field distribution, the scattering parameters, and the radiation pattern are presented. The scattering parameters show that the antenna operates at the GPS frequencies with lower than  dB. The finite difference time domain (FDTM) with the perfect matched layer (PML) is used in the present analysis.

Overmuch memory and time of CPU have been taken by multiresolution time domain (MRTD) method in three-dimension issues. In order to solve this problem, the alternating direction implicit body of revolution multiresolution time domain (ADI-BOR-MRTD) scheme is presented. Firstly, based on body of revolution finite difference time domain (BOR-FDTD) method, equations of body of revolution multiresolution time domain (BOR-MRTD) method are implemented. Then alternating direction implicit (ADI) is introduced into BOR-MRTD method. Lastly, convolution perfect matched layer (CPML) is applied for ADI-BOR-MRTD method. Numerical results demonstrate that ADI-BOR-MRTD method saves more memory and time of CPU than FDTD and MRTD methods.

In this paper, a composite patch antenna based on lefthanded material (LHM) with near zero index (NZI) is presented.This composite patch antenna is designed by assembling splitresonant rings (SRRs) and metal strips on the substrates. Thismultilayer composite structure results in a metamaterial with NZInear 13.89 GHz. A method of finite difference time domain(FDTD) is used. The results show that the composite antenna’sgain improves 0.61 times, and its bandwidth adds 2.95 timescompared to the conventional antenna’s ones. The results indicatethat this composite patch antenna system can reduce return loss ofthe antenna and increase the gain obviously.
