Abstract:
This paper presents the design of a 60 GHz millimeter-wave (MMW) slot array horn antenna based on the substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) structure. The novelty of this device resides in the achievement of a broad impedance bandwidth and high gain performance by meticulously engineering the radiation band structure and slot array. The antenna demonstrates an impressive impedance bandwidth of 14.96 GHz (24.93%), accompanied by a remarkable maximum reflection coefficient of -39.47 dB. Furthermore, the antenna boasts a gain of 10.01 dBi, showcasing its outstanding performance as a high-frequency antenna with a wide bandwidth and high gain. To validate its capabilities, we fabricated and experimentally characterized a prototype of the antenna using a probe test structure. The measurement results closely align with the simulation results, affirming the suitability of the designed antenna for radar sensing applications in future global industrial scenarios.
