説明

A partially corporate feeding waveguide located below the radiating waveguide is introduced to a waveguide slot array to enhance the bandwidth of gain. A PMC termination associated with the symmetry of the feeding waveguide as well as uniform excitation is newly proposed for realizing dense and uniform slot arrangement free of high sidelobes. To exploit the bandwidth of the feeding circuit, the 4 × 4-element subarray is also developed for wider bandwidth by using standing-wave excitation. A 16 × 16-element array with uniform excitation is fabricated in the E-band by diffusion bonding of laminated thin copper plates which has the advantages of high precision and high mass-productivity. The antenna gain of 32.4 dBi and the antenna efficiency of 83.0% are measured at the center frequency. The 1 dB-down gain bandwidth is no less than 9.0% and a wideband characteristic is achieved.
