 04 May 2004 19:10 2,4 ghz yagi |
|

hi folks, i need some theory about yagi design for ism band 2,4 ghz (pdf, links, whatever).
Please donīt send any links to home made yagis I donīt mean to copy someone elses antenna i mean to design my own. 
Thanks a lot.

is there an english version of 21rf ?
if there is one, could you please send it over?
thanks.....

hi,
you may find something useful in ham radio web pages.
For that frequency you can study DL6WU design (he is a radioamateur),
which also used for other bands.
If you plan to use a Yagi for wireless application this design could be fine: it gives a good gain performance.

PS. A little source code for this is attached

for general yagi design search the internet for:
ARRL - Antenna Handbook
ARRL - UHF/Microwave Experimenter's Manual

hi,pls tell me are u design on substrate if yes tell me ur sub details,if u design by tubes wires u can simulate ur antenna using IE3D pacage that i think it very accurae and easy in simulation of 3D wiring antenna

abdoeng:
thanks for answering, i trying to design a wire antenna, and yes i also think IE3D is the right soft to simulate my problem is lack of good theory.
So if you have any info or suggestions, iīm happy to hear.
thanks, Nico.-

about hf2050īs link, yes it is pretty cool... but the radiating element seams to be a folded dipole (Z=300, isnīt it ?).
And they feed it with the 50 ohm coaxial line  . Can anybody explain why is this working??
thanks.

Because of the mutual coupling between elements, the input impedance of the driven element is much lower than in free space. The folded dipole gets it back up in value for a very low economic and mechanical complexity cost.

hi,
don't forget to use a balun (balanced - unbalanced) for the feed.
Impedence matching is not the only thing to think to.
Conversion from balanced loads to unbalanced lines
(or vice versa) can be performed with no
impedance transformation.

you can also found very good antennas by F9FT

Hi, indiaco!
OK, why just the yagi?
This kind of antennas is very sensitive to size of elements and also the balun is quite problematic..
Without measuring at least reflection coefficient I'm skeptic about success..
If not other restriction, parabola is a very good choice.
Look at attachment, this offset is used from satellite and only the feeding horn is built. The Gain is ~21dBi on the WiFi band
Robust, stable, easy to build
Good Luck!

with yagi antennas no many problems wih the wind !!
with parabol much catch to the wind

hi eirp, i thought of a yagi cause i want to get about 12-15 dbi gain.
Low cost, easy to build/set antenna...
but you may by right about the feeding difficulties 
Iīll try with another antenna.... thanks anyway.
Nico

What about F9FT - i've experience to make this ones m.b. 15 years ago - nice antennas , it is possible to recalculate up to 600 - 700 MHz.
but for WiFi - maybe some problems if only scale down.
to EIRP
That's great )))))))))))) !!!!!!!!!
Really professinal aproach, minimum time to alignment. Is this your's device?

Hi all!
nico - you're right it's low cost antenna but I can't agree it's easy to build espec. on 2.45G
divan - thanks  but it's not exactly my antenna. I only simulated the whole structure in CST MWS for best performance and my friend have built it.
Cheers

hi,
if you want to try a different antenna... with almost same gain,
try the helix.
it is small and will not catch a lot of wind.
ciao
PS. anyway i attached a possible yagi feed: matched with the balun

Sweet songs about this "helix-yagi" , but base at my experience i don't belive in 18dBi single yagi Easy-To-Build-Aligment-No-Need.
If u need a gain and have no antenna range the dish is only way, another case not more than 12-(14?) dBi. nice VSWR wich this *** said about , don't mean good gain.
Thanx
