Dual-frequency planar antennas can substitute large bandwidth patch antennas, where there is a requirement for large bandwidth to cover two separate transmit receive bands. In this paper a novel single-feed, single layer, double-band, compact short loaded patch antenna is studied theoretically and experimentally. Besides the compactness, this design provides, dual frequency operation with a small frequency ratio of 1.3 between the two resonant bands. Various radiation characteristics are simulated as well as experimentally studied and good concurrence is observed between the simulated and measured results

AbstractOne of the most notable errors in the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is the ionospheric delay due to the total electron content (TEC). TEC is the number of electrons in the ionosphere in the signal path from the satellite to the receiver, which fluctuates with time and location. This error is one of the major problems in single-frequency (SF) GPS receivers. One way to eliminate this error is to use dual-frequency. Users of SF receivers should either use estimation models or local models to reduce this error. In this study, deep learning of artificial neural networks (ANN) was used to estimate TEC for SF users. For this purpose, the ionosphere as a single-layer model (assuming that all free electrons in the ionosphere are in this thin layer) is locally modeled by the code observation method. Linear combination has been used by selecting 24 permanent GNSS stations in the northwest of Iran. TEC was modeled independently of the geometry between the satellite and the receiver, called L4. This modeling was used to train the error ANN with two 5-day periods of high and low solar and geomagnetic activity range with a hyperbolic tangential sigmoid activation function. The results show that the proposed method is capable of eliminating ionosphere error with an average accuracy of 90%. The international reference ionosphere 2016 (IRI2016) is used for the verification, which has a 96% significance correlation with estimated TEC.
