摘要
A novel millimeter-wave (MMW) endfire wideband circularly polarized (CP) antenna with simple structure is reported. By introducing two symmetrical septum blades filled in the widened rectangular waveguide, the proposed antenna can obtain a 40% bandwidth for both axial ratio (AR) < 2.5 dB and S-11 < -15 dB. The CP operating mechanism of the antenna has been explained, using a three-port structure. The parametric studies for all of the antenna parameters are carried out to estimate their influences on antenna performance. The sharp corner in the AR plot is also explained by mode analysis. Its influences on the radiation pattern, gain, and reflection coefficient at this frequency point are evaluated. The proposed antenna has been fabricated and measured. The simulation results are in good agreement with the measurement results. Furthermore, this antenna is an appropriate choice for designing a MMW high-efficiency wideband antenna array. An 8 x 8 array with 64 equal amplitude and phase wave ports in HFSS has been designed to evaluate the array performance, which shows that the array can achieve 40% operating bandwidth without considering the bandwidth of feeding network. The simulated aperture efficiency of the array is above 85.34% from 50 to 75 GHz.
