Fabrication of Alternating-Phase Fed Single-Layer Slotted Waveguide Arrays Using Plastic Materials with Metal-Plating
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lightweight single-layer slotted waveguide array antennas are fabricated using plastic materials with metal-plating. A plastic material that has good heat-radiation properties is investigated. Three types of antennas are fabricated by milling, using ABS resin, heat-radiating plastic, and aluminum alloy. In measurements, all three types of antennas are confirmed to have almost the same VSWR and gain in the 25 GHz frequency band. key words: fixed wireless access (FWA), slotted waveguide array, plastic material, metal-plating

An Alternating-Phase Fed Single-Layer Slotted Waveguide Array with a Sector Shaped Beam for Millimeter-Wave Radar Applications
This paper presents design of an alternating-phase fed single-layer slotted waveguide array for a sector shaped beam in the Eplane radiation pattern. A sector beam pattern is very effective for radar applications for detecting obstacles in a certain angular range without mechanical or electronic scanning. The sector shaped beam with 13 degree beam width is synthesized by a cascade of T-junction...
متن کاملMechanical Phase Shift by Moving a Dielectric Block in the Divider for Single-layer Slotted Waveguide Arrays
1. Introduction This paper proposes beam scan by moving dielectric blocks mechanically in the feed waveguide of single-layer slotted waveguide arrays as shown in Fig.1. Millimeter-wave antennas with beam scan are desired in various systems such as collision-avoidance car radars [1-3]. Electrical scanning is the best but mechanical one is still attractive in terms of cost, efficiency, heat-radia...

Authors have developed various types of single-layer slotted waveguide arrays with simple structure and high mass-productivity. Those arrays have been successfully applied to relatively narrowband commercial services for satellite broadcast reception in 12 GHz band and wireless IP access at home in 26 GHz band etc. However, one weak point of that antenna is that the bandwidth of the antenna gai...
