Abstract

In this paper, we describe a fixed‐beam broadband planar antenna array at millimeter‐wave frequencies. The antenna is fed by waveguide‐feed and microstrip‐feed networks. In order to ensure fixed beams and a broad bandwidth, a subarray concept is introduced. For efficient coupling, a novel waveguide‐to‐slot transition consisting of a slot pair and a narrow conductive bar is proposed. Simulated and measured bandwidth is found to be more than 7.1% from 40.5–43.5 GHz. The main beam directions are broadside over all frequencies. The maximum measured antenna gain is 30.2 dBi at 42.0 GHz. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract This paper presents a broadband millimeter‐wave planar‐array antenna that uses a slot pair and crossing conductive bar. The antenna is fed by a waveguide feed network in the E‐plane to reduce the feed‐line loss and a microstrip‐feed network in the H‐plane in order to decrease fabricatio
