Progress in Integrated- Circuit Horn Antennas for Receiver Applications

چکیده
A receiver belonging to the family of integrated planar receivers has been developed at 90 GHz. It consists of a planar Schottky-diode placed at the feed of a dipole-probe suspended inside an integrated horn antenna. The measured planar mixer single-sideband conversion loss at 91.2 GHz (LO) with a 200 MHz IF frequency is S.3dB±0.3dB. The low cost of fabrication and simplicity of this design makes it ideal for millimeter and subinillimeterwave receivers. https://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp?R=19930018567 2017-12-03T14:13:33+00:00Z

Integrated Horn Antennas for Terahertz Applications
We are developing integrated and receivers antennas for terahertz applications. As the remote-sensing/radio-astronomical frequencies are pushed higher into the millimeter and submillimeterwave regions, integrated antennas and receivers become competitive with standard waveguide receivers. The integrated receivers consist of an antenna integrated directly with a matching network/mixer. Integrate...
متن کاملAxial Corrugated Horn Antenna with Elliptical Tapering Function
An axially corrugated horn antenna with an elliptically shaped taper is proposed for satellite communication applications. This structure is a good candidate for the feed of reflectors and also for improving the electrical properties of reflector antennas. A tapering method is used to justify the horizontal location of the corrugation profile which improves the electrical performance of the pre...
متن کاملHorn Antennas and Dual-Polarized Circuits in Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) Technology
The Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) technology is a very promising candidate to provide widespread commercial solutions for modern communications systems. Its main advantage is the possibility to integrate passive/active components and antennas in the same substrate by using standard manufacturing processes, such as the Printed Circuits Board (PCB) processing technique. Nevertheless, the p...

In In this paper, two low profile, single fed cavity backed slot antennas providing a circularly polarized (CP) wave are introduced. One of the antennas presents a right-handed CP (RHCP) wave, while the other one offers a left handed CP (LHCP) wave. The proposed antennas consist of a square shaped Substrtae Integrated Waveguide (SIW) cavity incorporatng two couples of radiating slots to radiate...
متن کاملOn-Chip Dipole Antennas in Silicon
Achieving higher levels of integration has been the driving force behind the semiconductor industry. Silicon chips are assuming greater functionality at higher frequencies in a smaller area and at a lower cost. Millimeter (mm) wave applications such as shortrange communications at 24GHz and 60GHz and automotive radar at 24GHz and 77GHz are the vanguard of the new generation of high-frequency wi...
