UWB antenna measurement and the patent issue - RF Cafe Forums

RF Cafe Forums closed its virtual doors in 2010 mainly due to other social media platforms dominating public commenting venues. RF Cafe Forums began sometime around August of 2003 and was quite well-attended for many years. By 2010, Facebook and Twitter were overwhelmingly dominating online personal interaction, and RF Cafe Forums activity dropped off precipitously. Regardless, there are still lots of great posts in the archive that ware worth looking at. Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Dear all,

Could anyone introduce some materials about the measurement setup of the antenna? Moreover, what is the measurement parameters do we need to do for the antenna measurement?

On the other hand, my supervisor asked me to determine what things could apply for the antenna design patent. Actually, we will ask someone help us to design the UWB antenna. We are afraid that the design is already patent. Therefore, I need to find out whether the design is already patent or not. Could anyone tell me how could I search the design is patent or not? Besides, what things could they use to patent it? such as the size, the material usage could use for patent?

thanks
