Abstract The higher the frequency, the more complex the scattering, diffraction, multiple reflection, and interference that occur in practical applications such as radar-installed vehicles and transmitter-installed mobile modules, etc. Near-field measurement in “real situations” is important for not only investigating the origin of unpredictable field distortions but also maximizing the system performance by optimal placement of antennas, modules, etc. Here, as an alternative to the previous vector-network-analyzer-based measurement, we propose a new asynchronous approach that visualizes the amplitude and phase distributions of electric near-fields three-dimensionally without placing a reference probe at a fixed point or plugging a cable to the RF source to be measured. We demonstrate the visualization of a frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) signal (24 GHz ± 40 MHz, modulation cycle: 2.5 ms), and show that the measured radiation patterns of a standard horn antenna agree well with the simulation results. We also demonstrate a proof-of-concept experiment that imitates a realistic situation of a bumper installed vehicle to show how the bumper alters the radiation patterns of the FMCW radar signal. The technique is based on photonics and enables measuring in the microwave to millimeter-wave range.

AbstractIn this paper, a compact substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) fed dielectric antenna with equivalently tapered E-plane profile is proposed and investigated. Firstly, transition from SIW to broadwall-detached SIW (DSIW) is analyzed, which provides basis for designing a compact SIW-fed dielectric antenna. Secondly, in order to realize an effective radiation structure while keeping geometrical size unchanged, a gradually tapered profile in E-plane is realized through perforating air-vias with different diameters into the DSIW. Effect of transition stage(s) is compared to validate the function of equivalently tapered profile. Results indicate the proposed antenna operates with 27.7 % fractional bandwidth ranging from 20.2 GHz to 26.7 GHz. Moreover, stable end-fire radiation patterns can be observed in the whole operating band. Above all, this antenna shows similarity with E-plane waveguide horn antenna but maintains advantage of planar configuration.

Size and feed structure are some of the important constraints for using antenna-elements in multi-element two-dimensional arrays, where easy planar integration and appropriate matching with transceiver chips are essential. This applies especially when differential signaling and adaptable polarization are required. Based on a balanced-fed patch-excited cavity-backed horn antenna (hybrid antenna), feeding concepts, and approaches to reduce size are discussed and evaluated in this paper. The influence of the substrate-integrated cavity is analyzed and methods to overcome the restrictions are presented, together with simulated and measured results. The antenna elements are evaluated with regard to their use in multistatic and polarimetric sparse arrays, which will be briefly introduced. The optimized antennas achieve 10 dB return loss, a gain of more than 5 dBi as well as symmetric and homogeneous radiation patterns in amplitude and phase with low cross-polarization in the desired frequency-band of operation between 70 and 80 GHz.
