摘要
A top-wall substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) slot radiator for generating circular polarized (CP) field is proposed and characterized in this letter. The reflection of the slot radiator is extremely weak, which simplifies the linear traveling wave array design. Based on such a structure, a 16-element CP SIW traveling wave antenna array is designed, fabricated, and measured at 16 GHz. A -23 side lobe level (SLL) with an axial ratio (AR) of 1.95 dB is experimentally achieved. The size of the proposed SIW CP linear array antenna is 285 mm x 22 mm. The measured gain is 18.9 dB, and the usable bandwidth is 2.5%.
