An active cavity‐backed antenna with self‐mixing capabilities is demonstrated. The FET oscillator operates at the resonance of the cavity in order to reduce the LO signal radiation. Experimental results show good performance in terms of isotropic conversion gain and radiation patterns.

This paper presents the detailed experimental characterization of X-band 400-element transmitarray antennas in dual linear polarization. The latter can radiate two different and independent beams in two distinct directions with orthogonal polarizations. Two prototypes are designed and fabricated at 10 GHz; one with two beams radiating at...

Several linearly-polarized and circularly-polarized transmit-arrays are designed and demonstrated in the 60-GHz band. These arrays have a fairly simple structure with three metal layers and are fabricated with a standard printed-circuit board technology. The simulation method is based on an electromagnetic model of the focal source and the...

This paper presents the design and demonstration of linearly-polarized and circularly-polarized transmit-arrays operating in the 60-GHz band. The arrays are fabricated with standard printed-board technology and are designed with a fairly simple structure using three metal layers. The experimental results show very good performances for both...

A substrate-integrated discrete-lens antenna manufactured in standard printed-circuit-board (PCB) technology is demonstrated in H-band (225-325 GHz). The arrays composed of phase-shifting unit cells and a waveguide-fed planar focal source are designed on a single PCB stack with five metal layers and multiple low-loss dielectric substrates in a...

In this paper, two antenna designs using active components are presented for reflection coefficient tunability. The antennas are designed within the scope of the Artemos project and use MEMS switches and BST tunable capacitors internally available in the project. The first antenna uses an SPDT MEMS switch to select between one of the two target...
