This article proposes a chip antenna on millimeter-Waves. This antenna combined with TSMC 180 nm SiGe CMOS technology has the advantage of being small in size and is suitable for wireless communications. The multilayer architecture Horn antenna implemented on M4–M6 can meet both process reliability specifications and radiation performance. The results of the simulation show that the maximum gain is −4.2 dBi. The return loss measurement results are almost consistent with the simulation results, and the bandwidth range is 177.4–183 GHz. This article first describes the antenna production process and measurement results, analyses the impact of the parameters on the antenna, and further compares it with other designs. The excellence of this article is that it proposes a design that solves the problem of large millimeter wave loss and successfully reduces the area. At the same time, this article can contribute to readers’ future optimization and continued research directions, and at the same time contribute simulation and measurement trends to let readers understand the stability of CMOS chip antenna simulation and measurement.

This paper proposes a design of a multilayer controlled beam horn antenna for the D-band. The multilayer design can achieve easy to control, low cost, and compact structure. The designed structure achieves the effect of a conventional horn antenna by stacking multiple layers and realizes the effect of beam switching by modifying the multi-layer plate structure. The widest bandwidth can be obtained when stacking 4 layers of boards, covering 24.7% (110-141GHz) of the bandwidth with a simulation gain of approximately 13.5dBi. By replacing the third plate structure, beam switching of ±30 degrees can be achieved, and the gain after beam switching can also reach 11.5 dBi. Horn, antenna, D-band, beam switching, multi-layer.

“…Based on these challenges, this study reviewed the antennas that can transmit and receive signals by electromagnetic waves through eucalyptus trunks that have been cut off [13][14][15][16][17][18] and to subsequently increase the efficiency of the receiving-transmitter power with EBG. The following literature on the structure of rectangular and cylindrical waveguide antennas used with the EBG was reviewed: Several studies have explored the structure of waveguide antennas of various shapes which employed EBG [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]. A conventional rectangular horn antenna was used for transmitting and receiving X-band satellite signals at the frequencies of 8 -12 GHz.…”

A rectangular waveguide antenna was tested for eucalyptus wood moisture content (MC) measurement before being used. To improve the moisture content measurement of the rectangular waveguide antenna, a woodpile-shaped Electromagnetic Band Gap (EBG) was installed by Transverse Electric (TE) arrangement. This antenna is responsible for receiving and transmitting signals which are converted from electrical energy into radio frequency energy transmitted through the air. In this research, we take advantage of the wave propagation of antennas in the air and use them to propagate waves through wood materials. To compare signal transmission power to determine moisture content in wood and the benefit of the EBG is that it acts like a convex lens to increase the strength of the waves so that they can penetrate the wood more efficiently. The results showed that woodpile-shaped EBG could increase the efficiency of receiving and transmitting signals, reduce working hours for farmers and reduce costs by about 90 %. When this antenna was tested and actually used, it was found that the frequency band that responded best to the moisture content value was 2.20 GHz. This antenna was built with an aluminum material of size 9×4×15 cm3 and 2×6 units woodpile EBG on a 9.54×4 cm2 Polyester Mylar base plate. There was a gain of 7.81 dBi from the original structure, or by 20 %. At a radius of 4 cm, the values of moisture content ranged from –9.46 to –42.19 dBm. At a radius of 6 cm, the values were –9.41 to –42.89 dBm. At a radius of 8 cm, the values ranged from –9.39 to –43.01 dBm, respectively. All 3 values were found to be efficient. The size was not less than 84 % compared to the general standard meter. HIGHLIGHTS A rectangular waveguide antenna was tested for eucalyptus wood moisture content (MC) measurement before being used.
