Design of a Compact Millimeter-Wave Microstrip Antenna with Wide Bandwidth and Broad Beamwidth

Design of a novel compact millimeter-wave microstrip antenna with wide bandwidth and broad beamwidth is presented. In the structure, multiple layers and a parasitic element as well as a coupling aperture are used to achieve wideband, while a conducting cylinder and the coupling aperture are used to obtain broad beamwidth. Finally, phased array with eight present elements has been designed as an example. Compared to traditional microstrip antennas and arrays, present antenna and array are of smaller dimension and broader beamwidth as well as wider bandwidth.     

Aperture-Sparsity Analysis of Ultrawideband Two-Dimensional Focused Array

We investigate the effects of aperture sparsity on the focusing performance and the angular-resolution capability of a two-dimensional focused array antenna excited by ultrawideband (UWB) impulse waveforms. The UWB-focusing array is characterized by a planar square aperture and a design parameter referred to as array spatial bandwidth. Spatial bandwidth is a function of the number of array elements, inter-element spacing, and frequency bandwidth. Performance analysis is carried out by generating computer plots of three-dimensional and two-dimensional antenna patterns for different values of array spatial bandwidth that hold for large aperture sparsity and large aperture density. The antenna patterns are peak-amplitude pattern, peak-power pattern, and energy pattern, whose narrow beamwidth and low sidelobe level are robust against aperture sparsity that may be caused by removed or failed elements. The half-power beamwidth (HPBW) of the antenna patterns, the focal distance, and the far-field distance of the UWB-focused array are expressed in terms of array spatial bandwidth. Computer simulation results show that UWB-focused-array beamforming based on impulse waveforms achieves efficient focusing of the radiation energy in the radiation-near-field region and beyond, and yields improvement in focusing performance and angular resolution for increased values of array spatial bandwidth. Such practical advantages are achieved without encountering grating lobes, large sidelobe level, or distortion of the radiation beam pattern that often limit the performance of the conventional narrowband phased array antennas.      

On the efficiency and radiation patterns of mismatched shaped Cassegrainian antenna systems

Calculations are carried out with regard to the aperture illumination efficiency, spillover efficiency, and blockage efficiency of a shaped Cassegrainian antenna system whose feed pattern is not similar to that for which the antenna was designed. It appears that a maximum overall efficiency may be expected for antenna systems with a feed pattern having a slightly narrower beamwidth than those for which the systems were originally designed. It is further proved that the radiation pattern of mismatched systems is very unfavorable in the case of the beamwidth of the feed pattern being wider than the beamwidth of the feed pattern for which the system was designed. This is due to overillumination of the edges.     

A one-parameter circular aperture distribution with narrow beamwidth and low sidelobes

A one-parameter circular aperture distribution is developed which provides an optimum compromise between narrow beamwidth, low sidelobes, and low apertureQ. The pattern is a modifiedJ_{1}(x)/x, analogous to the Taylor one-parameter modified sin(x)/xline source distribution. Sidelobe envelope taper is essentially that of a uniformly excited circular aperture; hence the aperture is lowQ. The aperture distribution which is rotationally symmetric is given by a modified Bessel function of zero order. Like all high efficiency distributions, it has a pedestal. All antenna quantities, sidelobe ratio, beamwidth, aperture efficiency, and edge taper, are uniquely related to the parameterH. A table of these quantities is given for sidelobe ratios up to 50 dB. A typical pattern and several distributions are graphed. This new distribution allows tradeoff studies to be made against any design quantity, with all other quantities determined through the one-parameter.     

A wide bandwidth and wide beamwidth CDMA/GSM base station antenna array with low backlobe radiation

A wide bandwidth and wide beamwidth L-probe-fed patch antenna array with a novel design of grounded structure is proposed and tested. The antenna is made of stacked patches supported by plastic screws. The patches are proximity fed via L-shaped probe. By cutting slots in two vertical side walls of a box-shaped grounded structure, an impedance bandwidth larger than 20% (SWR<1.5), an H-plane beamwidth over 90/spl deg/, and much reduction in backlobe radiation can be obtained. Details of the proposed antenna, simulation, and experimental results are presented and discussed.     

A short horn with high E-plane directivity

TheE-plane beamwidth of a small pyramidal horn can be substantially reduced by the addition of paxabolic cylinder flanges of the proper focal length. Analysis of this antenna involves both geometrical diffraction theory and conventional aperture techniques. In the numerical and experimental examples chosen the flanges halve the half-power beamwidth without severe bandwidth reduction. Consequently a lightweight compact horn is achieved.     

Multiple beam feed networks using an even number of beam ports

An aperture illumination compatible with the use of an even number of adjacent beam ports in a multiple beam feed network is discussed. The antenna pattern characteristics of near-in sidelobe levels, half-power beamwidth, aperture efficiency, and feed network loss are evaluated. Maximization of the available antenna gain at adjacent beam crossover points is shown to be possible for either sequential or simultaneons operation of a receiving system. The results presented indicate that lossy feed networks are quite suitable for certain array antenna applications.     

An ultrawide-bandwidth tapered resistive TEM horn antenna

A novel stable beamwidth, ultrawide-bandwidth low-scattering antenna is presented. This antenna is a modified version of the conducting slotline bowtie hybrid (SBH) antenna with resistive sheets (Rcards) introduced into the guiding structure design. Since the resistive sheets can attenuate creeping wave fields, much smaller rolled edges are needed in the Rcard SBH antenna. Moreover, due to the Rcard's partially transparent nature with respect to electromagnetic fields, the radar cross section (RCS) associated with this new antenna is smaller than the original conducting rolled edge one. By employing an optimization process based on the concept of the genetic algorithm, one can easily design the Rcard SBH antenna to obtain a very stable antenna beamwidth and phase center in both the E- and H-planes across the entire operating frequency bandwidth. Because of its constant beamwidth, low RCS, and broad-band features, the Rcard SBH antenna is an ideal antenna for many applications such as a compact range feed. Calculated and measured results are presented to demonstrate the performance of this new antenna
