Abstract |
We proposed a $4{times}8$ array antenna with aperture-coupled patch antenna elements. The antenna was designed for 60 GHz operation and fabrication on the low-temperature cofired ceramic(LTCC) substrate($varepsilon_r$=5.8). The feedline with the stub was designed to enhance the radiating element bandwidth and the transition characteristics between the waveguide (WG) and microstrip line(MSL). Through the optimization of the antenna and feedline geometry, the antenna gain and the performance of the 10 dB bandwidth were 20.2 dBi and 13 % up, respectively. The measured results agreed with the simulated ones. |
