A Typical Slotted SIW Cavity-backed Antenna for Dual frequency operations in U-NII Bands
Main Article Content
Abstract
A low profile circular shaped cavity-backed substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) antenna with two-typical intersecting rectangular slots on the ground plane is designed to operate in the dominant TM010 mode at a frequency of 5.19 GHz in U-NII-1 band for wireless applications. The initially designed antenna produces a gain of 4 dBi with a narrow impedance bandwidth extending from 5.17 – 5.22 GHz. The antenna design is further modified by insertion of another shifted two-typical intersecting rectangular slots to finally resemble that of Hash shape; resulting in dual band antenna operation at 4.9 and 5.93 GHz. The gains obtained are 3.7 dBi and 1.4 dBi for 4.9 and 5.93 GHz respectively with an impedance bandwidth covering 4.88 - 4.92 GHz and 5.92 – 5.94 GHz respectively. The antenna prototype is fabricated using Arlon AD270 substrate material. Parametric studies are performed in terms of return loss and gain of the antenna. All simulations are carried out using HFSS v19.0 and show similar behavior to their experimentally measured counterparts.
