Abstract

We proposed a free access mat consisting of tightly coupled patch resonator array for an easy and low loss access for short range communications. By numerical simulation we obtained lower loss propagation than the free space transmission for one and two dimensional array models. By measurement we confirmed that this mat has lower loss propagation in the mat than through the free space even when the antenna coupling to the mat is considered. The gain was more than 10 dB which is large enough to say that the free access mat is available to provide an easy and small loss access for short range wireless access.
