recently a new structure called groove gap waveguide (GGW) is ‎introduced to implement low loss microwave component devices ‎especially for millimeter wave applications. This paper presents a ‎new type of H-plane horn antenna making use of this new technology ‎in which backward radiation is significantly suppressed by ‎introducing a high impedance surface at the antenna aperture. The ‎high impe...

A newly designed printed slot antenna is presented that incorporates variable two band-notched functions for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications. The two band notches of this coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed antenna are achieved by an M-shaped slot (MSS) embedded in the radiating element and a C-shaped strip (CSS) close to ground plane, therefore two very narrow rejected properties in the wireless lo...

In this paper, a broadband rectangular microstrip patch antenna fed by coplanar waveguide feed with two slots in the ground plane is proposed. Investigations are carried out using coplanar waveguide feed with slotting in the ground plane to optimize the broadband operation. A sensitivity analysis shows the variation of return loss with different antenna parameters. This design of broadband ante...

In the paper, wideband antenna arrays aimed at microwave imaging applications and SAR applications operating at Ka band were designed. The antenna array feeding network is realized by a low-loss SIW technology. Moreover, we have replaced the large feed network comprised of various T and Y junctions by a simple broadband network of compact size to more reduce losses in the substrate integrated w...

This paper shows injection molded millimeter-wave horn array antenna for the 1-dimensional APAA(Active Phase Array Antenna). The antenna is composed of horn antennas, grooved circular waveguide polarizers, E-plane T-junctions, and E-plane bends employing dielectric waveguides. This structure makes it possible to manufacture a feed circuit and radiating elements as an integrated unit by using in...

The Dielectric Resonator Antenna (DRA) is one of the efficient radiator which is used to achieve broadband and cost effective communication in wireless technology. The Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) technology is the most assuring structure for implementation of circuits and components for millimeter wave and microwave applications. A design approach to improve the impedance bandwidth of ...

circularly-polarized antenna is built based on new SIW(substrate integrated waveguide)structure which contains cavity-backed resonator and a conventional polarized ring with twosquare slits in inner and outer ring that differ 90° at position and is proposed for right-handedcircular polarization (RHCP) and fabricated in two separate layers. A broadband impedancebandwidth of 13.9% and a RHCP axia...
