Planar Millimeter-Wave Antennas: A Comparative Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper describes the design and the experimental verification of three types of wideband antennas. Attention is turned to the bow-tie antenna, the Vivaldi antenna and the spiral antenna designed for the operation at millimeter waves. Bandwidth, input impedance, gain, and directivity pattern are the investigated parameters. Antennas are compared considering computer simulations in CST Microwave Studio and measured data.

High-gain Millimeter-wave Planar Array Antennas with Traveling-wave Excitation
High-gain and large-aperture antennas with fixed beams are required to achieve high S/N ratio for point-to-point high-speed data-communication systems in the millimeter-wave band. Furthermore, beam-scanning antennas are attractive to cover wide angle with high gain for applications of high-speed data-communication systems and high-resolution sensing systems. High-gain pencil-beam antennas are u...

Near-field ranges operate by measuring the electromagnetic field near the antenna and then mathematically transforming the data to any arbitrary location. Near-field operations are a form of microwave holography. The wave front measurements are normally made on a planar, spherical or cylindrical surface. This paper discusses primarily the planar configurations as used in the measurement of larg...

The authors have developed high-efficiency and mass-producible planar slot array antennas using unique singlelayer waveguide structures. Four types of planar waveguides, all belonging to single-layer waveguide, are structurally quite simple and low cost while they inherit low loss characteristics from waveguides. They are leading candidates for high-gain planar antennas in high frequency wirele...
