A new type of time modulated metamaterial (MTM) antenna array transmitter capable of realizing 2D directional modulation (DM) for physical layer (PHY) security is presented in this work. The proposed 2D DM MTM antenna array is formed by a time modulated corporate feed network loaded with composite right/left-handed (CRLH) leaky wave antennas (LWAs). By properly designing the on-off states of the switch for each antenna feeding branch as well as harnessing the frequency scanning characteristics of CRLH L WAs, 2D DM can be realized to form a PHY secured transmission link in the 2D space. Experimental results demonstrate the bit-error-rate (BER) is low only at a specific 2D angle for the orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) wireless data links.

Purnomo, M. F. E., Kitagawa, A..  2017.  Developing basic configuration of triangle array antenna for circularly polarized-Synthetic Aperture Radar sensor application. 2017 International Conference on Radar, Antenna, Microwave, Electronics, and Telecommunications (ICRAMET). :112–117.

The development of radar technology, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) requires the communication facilities and infrastructures that have variety of platforms and high quality of image. In this paper, we obtain the basic configuration of triangle array antenna using corporate feeding-line for Circularly Polarized- Synthetic Aperture Radar (CP-SAR) sensor embedded on small UAV or drone airspace with compact, small, and simple configuration. The Method of Moments (MoM) is chosen in the numerical analysis for fast calculation of the unknown current on the patch antenna. The developing of triangle array antenna is consist of four patches of simple equilateral triangle patch with adding truncated corner of each patch and resonant frequency at f = 1.25 GHz. Proximity couple, perturbation segment, single feeding method are applied to generate the circular polarization wave from radiating patch. The corporate feeding-line design is implemented by combining some T-junctions to distribute the current from input port to radiating patch and to reach 2×2 patches. The performance results of this antenna, especially for gain and axial ratio (Ar) at the resonant frequency are 11.02 dBic and 2.47 dB, respectively. Furthermore, the two-beams appeared at boresight in elevation plane have similar values each other i.e. for average beamwidth of 10 dBic-gain and the 3 dB-Ar are about 20° and 70°, respectively.
