چکیده

Two design procedures for Radial Line Slot Antennas (RLSAs) with circular polarization and either maximum gain or an arbitrary shaped pattern are proposed. Firstly, a method to design a RLSA with any desired pattern is presented. It is based on an optimization algorithm and some measures to ensure its fast convergence and stability need to be taken. Secondly, a fast technique to calculate the length and the position of every slot in a high gain RLSA with uniform field distribution is described. Both procedures are validated with the design of three antennas with different characteristics.

Design and Development of High Gain, Low Profile and Circularly Polarized Cavity-backed Slot Antennas Using High-order Modes of Square Shaped Substrtae Integrated Waveguide Resonator

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...

Circularly Polarized Circular Slot Antenna Array Using Sequentially Rotated Feed Network

This paper presents the design, simulation, and measurement of two low-cost broadband circularly polarized (CP) printed antennas: a single element and an array at C band. The proposed single element antenna is excited by an L-shaped strip with a tapered end, located along the circular-slot diagonal line in the back plane. From the array experimental results, the 3 dB axial ratio bandwidth can r...

Dual Circularly Polarized Concentric Array Radial Line Slot Antenna fed by Rotating modes from Front and Back Sides for Satellite Application

Radial line slot antennas (RLSAs) are well known as high-efficiency planar antennas in high-gain region for the circular polarization [1]. Figure 1 shows the structure of a general RLSA. A radial waveguide is composed of two parallel circular metal plates. An electromagnetic power is fed from the center and excites a slot array on the top plate. To obtain a pencil beam, the radiating elements a...

A Full-Wave Analysis of a Complete Model for a Radial Line Slot Antenna

Extremely small aperture radial line slot antennas (RLSAs) are analyzed by method of moments. At first, the analysis model of cylindrical waveguide in terms of rectangular cavity modes is confirmed for a RLSA with a spiral slot arrangement. The overall VSWR as well as rotational symmetry of the actual structure of RLSAs is predicted for the first time and is confirmed experimentally. Secondly, ...
