Broad-band H-spaced head-shaped slot with SIW-based antenna for 60 GHz wireless communication applications

摘要

In this article, a compact SIW-based H-spaced head-shaped slot antenna is proposed, and slot is etched into the top, proposed design printed by RT-Duriod 5880 substrate (epsilon(r) = 2.2), which is accountable for achieving millimeter-wave wireless applications, small size, and broadband operation. The SIW-based slot antenna with a compacted dimension of 14 x 8 x 0.381 mm(3) is fabricated and tested. The testing results show that the design proposed, having occupied frequency range from 58.5 to 61.72 GHz, respectively, covers V-band (millimeter wireless communications applications). The testing and simulation result bandwidth range of a proposed design is 4.22 and 4.19 GHz. It has fine radiation characteristics for both E-field and H-field in all the preferred operational bands and generates superior performances compared to the existing design antenna in the reviews.
