60 GHz Plated Through Hole Printed Magneto-Electric Dipole Antenna

A wide-band high-gain antenna fed by probe tangent to the patch

“…4 mm are analyzed while other parameters are fixed. The antenna finds the resonant frequency at 60 GHz for L1=0.6mm.When the value of L1 is decreased from 0.6 mm to 0.4 mm, the resonant frequency of the antenna would shift to upper frequency [16]; however, a poor impedance matching is found. The other hand, when L1 is changed from 0.6mm to 0.8mm, the resonant frequency will go down to the lower frequency range in coincidence with a reasonable impedance.…”

Substrate-Integrated Waveguide-Based 60-GHz Resonant Slotted Waveguide Arrays With Wide Impedance Bandwidth and High Gain

“…After fabrication, an Agilent network analyzer (E8361A) is used to measure its reflection coefficient. The broadside gain and radiation pattern are measured by an in-house far-field millimeter wave antenna measurement system that was also used in [9]. Due to the system limitation, only the radiation pattern in the upper half space is measured.…”

“…Various types of antennas working at 60GHz have been investigated, such as patch [2][3], grid [4], Yagi [5][6][7], dipole [8][9], tapered slot [10][11][12], dielectric resonator [13] and slot antenna [14][15][16][17]. Among these, substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) based slotted waveguide array is one of the most promising candidates for mass production due to its high gain, planar structure, low cost and easy fabrication.…”

Design of Circularly Polarized Planar Magneto-Electric Dipole Antenna

“…This antenna can provide wide impedance bandwidth, identical E-plane and H-plane radiation patterns, stable gain and low back radiations [1,2]. Despite the antenna has shown excellent performance with a staircase-shaped structure [3][4][5][6], where additional need of balun may be removed and antenna can provide dual-band with wide impedance bandwidth and high gain, with differential feeding structure [7,8], where the originally single ended operation is converted into differential ended to provide ultra-wide band, theoretically infinite differential port to port isolation and to be directly connected to differential microwave circuits, and with dielectric material [8][9][10], where magneto-electric dipole antenna is printed on dielectric material, it suffers from disadvantages of being bulky and pertaining complex structures. In [11][12][13], circular polarization has been achieved with 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth of 42.9%, 61.5% and 82% respectively, but the magneto-electric dipole antenna structure is non-planar.…”
