Abstract
A beam-steering fed array antenna has been proposed for radar and mm-Wave applications operating from 22.6 to 26.89 GHz and 30–45 GHz with B.W % of 17.34 % and 40 % respectively having size of 12.11 × 25.58 × 0.8 mm3 (0.96λo × 2.01λo × 0.06λo). For radar, this antenna covers 24.15 GHz as police radar, 24.25–25.25 GHz & 31.8–33.4 GHz as navigation radar, and 33.4–36 GHz as high-resolution radar for airport surveillance. This antenna also covers mm-wave bands for different countries (Brazil-40 GHz, China- 34–42.5 GHz, Mexico- 33 GHz and 37 GHz, and USA- 24 GHz, 37 & 39 GHz). At initial stage, a monopole antenna with DGS has been designed with an operating band of 20.2–31.2 GHz and 36.6–42.2 GHz. Proposed antenna shifts the beam pattern at 90° with each other after exciting each port in alternative order with a scanning angle of ±45°, ±75° & ±180°. Peak gain for 1st band ranges from 7.1 to 9 dBi and for the 2nd band ranges from 8.8 to 10.2 dBi and has a radiation efficiency of 88 %. Other diversity parameters such as ECC, DG, MEG, and isolation get analysed to observe the coupling effects. Design, development, and analysis of all antenna parameters is done by using HFSS 19 platform.
期刊介绍:
Frequenz is one of the leading scientific and technological journals covering all aspects of RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering. It is a peer-reviewed, bi-monthly published journal.
Frequenz was first published in 1947 with a circulation of 7000 copies, focusing on telecommunications. Today, the major objective of Frequenz is to highlight current research activities and development efforts in RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering throughout a wide frequency spectrum ranging from radio via microwave up to THz frequencies.
RF-, Microwave-, and THz-Engineering is a very active area of Research & Development as well as of Applications in a wide variety of fields. It has been the key to enabling technologies responsible for phenomenal growth of satellite broadcasting, wireless communications, satellite and terrestrial mobile communications and navigation, high-speed THz communication systems. It will open up new technologies in communications, radar, remote sensing and imaging, in identification and localization as well as in sensors, e.g. for wireless industrial process and environmental monitoring as well as for biomedical sensing.
