Download or read book A Dielectric loaded Leaky Wave Antenna written by Jorgen Aasted and published by . This book was released on 1961 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design and the measured performance are described of a flat, leaky-wave antenna in which the inductive, leaky surface is backed with a slab of dielectric. The analysis is based on a transverse resonance analysis which determines the physical dimensions of the antenna for a certain specified aperture distribution. An antenna was built to compare the theoretical behavior with the measured performance. Two ways of forming the dielectric to the antenna were tested. When the dielectric was molded in place the radiation pattern agreed very well with the theoretically predicted pattern, but high losses in the casting resin gave a lower gain for the antenna than anticipated. For a machined piece of dielectric, the radiation pattern was not as close to the predicted pattern as for the molded sample, but the gain was close to the predicted value. The antenna consists of a 28-by-18-inch through filled with a dielectric material over which a sheet of parallel wires is strung. At the design frequency, 4.75 gc, the antenna radiates a pencil beam 9.4 by 8.3 degrees wide at an angle of 54 degrees measured from the normal to the inductive surface. The beam can be scanned from approximately 75 degrees down to 12 degrees from the normal to the aperture by changing the frequency from 5.25 gc to 4.20 gc. (Author).

Download or read book Leaky Wave Antenna written by Pradyumna Aditya and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main radiation mechanism in a leaky wave antenna is a travelling wave in a guided structure. The main characteristics of a leaky wave antenna are: light weight, easy to fabricate. Leaky wave antennas have been in use since the 1940s. In this thesis, a portable and powerful leaky-wave antenna is designed, implemented, and demonstrated for scanning application. We change the guiding structure by applying a high dielectric constant material to produce a low-cost, small size, light weight, and high sensitivity leaky-wave antenna. The designed antenna can reach large scan angles with small frequency tuned. High scanning angles can be achieved by slight variation of the operating frequency. The radiation direction of the antenna can be varied with the frequency.

Download or read book Analysis of Leaky Wave Antennas Using the Matrix Pencil Method written by Amardeep Singh and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The leaky-wave antenna (LWA) is a traveling wave antenna that uses a fast wave as the main radiating mechanism, where the fast wave is radiating continuously along the structure. Depending on the length of the antenna, some part of the fast wave gets reflected from the end and causes another beam in the opposite direction. The effects of the reflected fast wave on the radiation pattern can be analyzed if the reflection coefficient at the end of the antenna is known, which can be obtained from the complex amplitude and propagation constants associated with the fast waves. Even the radiation pattern of a LWA can be obtained using the reflection coefficient and propagation constants. Closed top guiding structures, a dielectric slab waveguide, 2-D LWAs and 3-D LWAs are modeled in a commercial full wave MoM solver, FEKO. The near-field samples are calculated along the structure. For these types of structures, the total near field can be expressed as a sum of complex exponentials. The matrix pencil method (MPM) is a most accurate and efficient linear technique to approximate a function by a sum of complex exponentials. The exponential components from the total near field use the complex propagation constants inside the structure, which are calculated using the MPM. The MPM extracted amplitude and phase components are used to calculate the reflection coefficients of the structures and radiation patterns of the LWAs. The accuracy of this approach is verified using various open and closed guiding structures in 2-D and 3-D, and by comparing the results with available numerical and experimental results.
Download or read book A New Leaky Wave Antenna for Millimeter Waves Based on the Groove Guide written by P. Lampariello and published by . This book was released on 1984 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leaky wave antennas for millimeter waves face two main problems. The first relates to the small wavelengths involved, which require small waveguide dimensions and pose fabrication difficulties. The second problem is higher metal loss. In the new leaky wave antenna described and analyzed here, we overcome the first of these problems by choosing a structure with a longitudinally continuous aperture, and the second by basing the antenna on a low-loss waveguide, the groove guide. The groove guide is an open waveguide, but its dominant mode is purely bound by virtue of structural symmetry. By placing a longitudinal asymmetric metal strip along the guide, the symmetry is distributed and a new TEM-like mode is produced in the transverse direction that propagates to the open end and leaks power away. An accurate theoretical analysis is presented for the performance properties of this antenna structure. The cross section is represented by a transverse equivalent network that contains some subtle features. All of the elements of this transverse network are obtained in closed form, so that the dispersion relation for the propagation characteristics is likewise in closed form.
Download or read book Compact Leaky Wave Antenna Using Ferroelectric Materials written by Hyung Min Jeon and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leaky wave antenna continuously attracts a lot interests for tuning the radiation direction over a large angle. Various types of leaky wave antenna have been developed since 1940. However, most of these leaky wave antennas suffered from their excessive volume and the required wide range of operating frequency (bandwidth) to achieve a large tuning angle. To circumvent these challenges, research in this thesis is focused on implementation of material (like PZT) with high dielectric constant (k) in a rectangular waveguide leaky wave antenna. Due to the high dielectric constant of PZT ~ 1,900, the propagation wavelength in the waveguide can be dramatically shortened. This allows the leaky wave antenna to be operated at much lower frequency, or to have a significant volume reduction. In addition, using high k material enables bandwidth narrowing. In experiments, 70 degree tuning angle was observed by changing frequency from 2.1217 GHz to 2.235 GHz in a proto-type leaky wave antenna filled with material of . The tuning angle can be further adjusted by the slot length and distance.
