An Ultra-Wideband Optically Transparent Antenna Using ITO Material And Water

An ultra-wideband optically transparent antenna using ITO and water is presented in this paper. The antenna is made of three transparent materials including indium tin oxide (ITO) film,PMMA and pure water walls.The antenna power is provided by using inset feed method.The impedance bandwidth of proposed transparent antenna is from 12 GHz to 27 GHz covering all Ku band and K band. The proposed antenna is ultra wide band, optically transparent, low profile and low cost.
