A Millimeter-Wave Multibeam Transparent Transmitarray Antenna at Ka-Band

Abstract: This letter presents a transmitarray antenna (TA) in the 27.5-29.5 GHz frequency band. The proposed TA is optically transparent and offers the possibility of steering the beam in the H-plane from -30° to 30°. One can achieve these properties using a novel unit-cell, composed of meshed double-circle rings printed on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) substrates, a plastic material transparent to visible light. This unit-cell provides a phase-shift of 300° for an insertion loss lower than 1 dB at 28.5 GHz. In turn, t… Show more

“…The literature depicts the use of other materials for the development of transparent antenna. These include Array Antennas using a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) substrates with aperture-coupled microstrip patch (ACMP) antennas for Ka-band [78] , or using a extruded acrylic material for satellite communications [79] , or using a DRA transmit array for 12 GHz usages [80] . and transparent antenna can be a Mesh antennas using a Borosilicate glass with solar cell ground plane for multifunctional solar antenna devices [67], or using a Fire Retardant-4 (FR4) for cube satellites (CubeSats) and Other Small Satellites application [11], or using a Roger's RO4003C laminate for antenna arrays application [81].…”

“…This is because; most integrated wireless systems rely on batteries that suffer from various disadvantages, such as substantial maintenance costs [63]. In order to limit beam steering speed in mechanical motor platform, transparent TA(TTA) can switch the beam in Hplane at Ka-band [78], while concurrently increasing the cost of RFID [84].…”

“…The trends towards the low‐profile, beam‐scanning ability of TA has encouraged the design and development of different beam‐scanning TA. Liu, et al, have proposed a TA with multibeam and give the possibility of steering the beam from −30° to 30° . A metasurface (MTS) based lens antenna with the beam scan range of ±26° has been designed in Reference .…”
