Design and analysis of half-mode SIW antenna for home automation in IoT

Abstract

Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) technology implemented antenna for home automation in IoT is presented in this paper. SIW exhibits a low copper loss, reduce surface waves, low radiation loss and low dielectric loss property. In this paper the rectangular waveguide has been designed, simulated, and fabricated to operate in 5 – 15 GHz frequency range. The important performance characteristics of antenna are simulated and measured. The rectangular waveguide has two parallel metallic cylinders consisting of via holes in which we can prevent the entering of unwanted radiations.
