Compact multi‐layer microstrip Rotman lens design using coupling slots to support millimetre wave devices

Abstract: Millimetre wave technology is now considered as a key component for the next generation (5G) of cellular networks since they offer higher data rates and broader bandwidth compared to the current technology. However, since communication in this frequency band suffers higher propagation loss and atmospheric absorption (∼12 dB/km), the use of highly directional antennas plays an important role in order to compensate for these losses. Therefore, it is necessary to design beamforming networks that are not only able… Show more

“…However, the reported measured return loss indicates a poor matching performance (S 11 < −8.5 dB). Another BFN with similar fabrication technology is presented in [16]. The basic idea is realizing a folded Rotman lens with the use of aperture coupling by multi-branch slots for the transition between the lens layers.…”
