Directive planar antenna array fed by dielectric waveguide for WiFi applications

Abstract: A 1‐D nonuniform antenna array fed by a dielectric waveguide operating at 5.7 GHz is proposed. Based on the electromagnetic coupling between the inside travelling wave and the antenna elements, a broadside directive radiation pattern is obtained. The presence of a ground plane allows wall mounting, which is advantageous in many wireless fidelity applications. A prototype was built and measured to prove the concept. The measured −6 dB bandwidth is ca. 150 MHz and the measured realized gain is 9.58 dBi in the br… Show more

“…In this paper, an innovating 1D leaky wave antenna topology is proposed, which combines several aspects: e structure is based on a fully planar and very lowprofile substrate A dielectric waveguide is formed based on this grounded substrate in combination with mushroom EBG units along the guiding channel is waveguide is used as the feeding mechanism for a leaky wave planar array [17] Furthermore, a dedicated CPW to SIW transition structure with a V slot is adopted to achieve a smooth mode conversion to the guiding channel As far as the authors can see, this is the first structure described in literature combining all these features. is topology offers significant advantages in integration, fabrication, and a broad working band when compared with the conventional transmission lines.…”

“…This paper provides an insight into the development of a method that allows a MLWAs to reach fixed-frequency beam scanning and also suggestions on a novel HW-MLWA array configuration because the high-gain and the highly directional antenna arrays at the transmitter (TX) and the receiver (RX) reinforces the suitability of wireless communications [21][22][23][24]. That eliminates the necessity of lumped capacitors.…”
