| Summary: | The accelerated technological development in different fields and applications led to the
emergence of an urgent need to present new materials for the design and implementation of
modern antennas which are characterized by upgrade characteristics. These characteristics
need to have the required materials for designing these antennas with remarkable properties
that have durable despite the time or environment changes. Therefore, the main aim of this
research is to present the materials which have good properties as well as have the ability to
meet the required demands of the rapidly growing technological development in antenna
applications. The basic materials proposed in this work are based on the carbon nanotubes
(CNTs) properties and their structures as well as the carbon nanotubes composite materials.
The problem statement of this research is present for the first time adequate modelling
approaches for different CNTs structures and proposed a new material structure for antenna
applications. This research also aims to estimate the electromagnetic (EM) behaviour of
these materials through CST (MWS) for the purpose of antenna design and applications.
Therefore, to achieve this aim, the mathematical analysis for these materials are done in
order to compute their important parameters. Moreover, in this work, two modelling
approaches are presented for both single-walled CNTs (SWNTs) and bundle of SWNTs (BSWNTs).
Where, the equivalent nano-solid tube material (NSTM) model is utilized for the
personification of the SWNTs and the equivalent solid conductor model (SCM) for the
personification of the B-SWNTs. Hence, these modelling approaches presented in this study
are indicate to benefit the estimation of the EM parameters of the dipole antennas that are
designed based on these materials. Interestingly, the dipole antenna model is employed for
studying the EM properties of these materials and their corresponding models. The
validation process of the presented modelling approaches is achieved based on a
comprehensive comparison for these models with the corresponding original related work. |
