Presence of Foreign object debris (FOD) at airport runways is an immense threat to flight safety. Such objects may cause potential damage to the aircraft especially during the take off and landing. This paper introduces the design of a low-cost Ka-band FOD radar sensor adopting state-of-the-art system-on-substrate (SoS) approach. Contrary to the reported single-layer SoS design approach, multi-...

Planar directional coupler using Substrate Integrated Waveguide technology (SIW) is proposed in this paper. The SIW coupler with tapered microstrip-SIW transitions are integrated on the same substrate. Planar form makes this coupler structure easily integrable in microwave planar circuits. These proposed power dividers can be applied to the design of the beam-forming network for communication s...
