A Compact Antenna Test Range Based On A Hologram - Antennas and Propagation, IEEE Transactions on

چکیده
The application of conventional reflector-type compact antenna test ranges (CATR’s) becomes increasingly difficult above 100 GHz. The main problems are the tight surface accuracy requirements for the reflectors and, therefore, the high manufacturing costs. These problems can be overcome by the use of a hologram type of compact range in which a planar hologram structure is used as a collimating element. This idea is described and its performance is studied with theoretical analyses and measurements at 119 GHz.

Development of A Compact and Low Profile Cavity Backed Slot Antenna Using Microstrip Gap Waveguide Technology
Proof of concept of a cavity backed slot antenna based on inverted microstrip gap waveguide (IMGW) technology is presented. Since the antenna is operating based on the first resonating mode of the cavity, it is more compact compared to the ordinary cavity backed slot antennas in which the second cavity mode is used for radiation. Furthermore, the proposed antenna element introduces lower lo...
متن کاملMulti Attribute Analysis of a Novel Compact UWB Antenna with Via-fed Elements for Dual Band Notch Function (RESEARCH NOTE)
A compact microstrip-fed antenna with dual notched bands is proposed. First, a simple basic configuration is presented for Ultra Wide Band (UWB) applications and then the dual band notched structure is extended from the UWB one. The basic structure of the UWB antenna consists of a simple square radiating patch and a ground plane with a wide square slot on back of the substrate. A semi-circle sh...
متن کاملA Complete Manuscript Appearing in Ieee Transactions on Antennas and Propagation a Capacitively Loaded Pifa for Compact Mobile Telephone Handsets
A capacitively loaded planar inverted{F antenna (PIFA) is proposed and studied. It is found that the capacitive load reduces the resonance length of the PIFA from =4 to less than =8. A design with a bandwidth of 178MHz centered at 1.8GHz is provided to demonstrate that compact antennas for mobile telephone handsets can be constructed using this approach. The nite diierence time domain method is...
متن کاملComplementary Split Ring Resonator Effects on Radiation Pattern Reconfigurable Circular Microstrip Antennas
In this study, a radiation pattern reconfigurable microstrip antenna is designed and fabricated. The antenna’s radiation pattern is directed in 9 different angles by employing a radiating patch and embedding complementary split ring resonators (CSRR) on the ground plane. The radiating patch is of circular shape, while for CSRR elements both circular and rectangular shapes are investigated. The ...
متن کاملA Reflection-type Amplitude Hologram as a Collimating Element in the Compact Antenna Test Range
In this paper, we study the possibility to use an amplitude hologram as a reflection-type collimating element to produce a plane wave in the compact antenna test range (CATR). So far, we have used holograms as transmissiontype elements only. The hologram studied here has a diameter of 600 mm and it operates at the frequency of 310 GHz. It is a computer-generated slot pattern etched on a thin me...
