## Abstract Slot antennas with a backing cavity for unidirectional radiation are investigated with the aim of achieving a thin structure capable of reasonably broadband operation. By tuning together the slot length and the cavity cross‐section, a very low‐profile cavity‐backed slot (CBS) is demonst

Abstract
Two types of cavity‐backed slot (CBS) antennas fed by a microstrip line and operating at 5.8 GHz are described in this letter. One is a broadband linearly polarized CBS antenna, which can provide 34% bandwidth for a 10‐dB return loss. The other is a circularly polarized dual T‐shape CBS, which has 4% bandwidth for a 3‐dB axial ratio and a 15% bandwidth for a 10‐dB return loss. The simulated and measured results of both antennas are in good agreement. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The effect of dielectric loading in EC-SCPW on forwardcoupler characteristics has been studied. The dielectric loading increases the coupling coefficient and the frequency bandwidth, thus finding application in the propagation of narrow pulses. The size of the device can also be reduced considerably
## Abstract This article describes a cavity‐backed slot antenna fed by a coplanar waveguide (CPW). The designed antenna operates at 30 GHz and uses an inverted configuration with the CPW feed line on the top of the substrate and the slot facing toward the metallic cavity. Both simulated and measure
## Abstract A novel, folded, capacitive‐fed microstrip antenna with a length of λ/3 and placed over a cavity backing is proposed. Compared to the small rectangular patch antenna of Luk, our proposed antenna has a large impedance bandwidth of 20.1%. The cross‐polarization level is ∼−17 dB. © 2001 Jo
## Abstract A 20 GHz 2 × 2 subarray radiator of microstrip‐fed cavity‐backed circularly polarized horn is presented. Since horn antennas incorporating waveguide types of circular polarizers have big size of radiator height, microstrip feeding and polarization is proposed and cavity‐backed introduce
The mutual coupling of hemispherical ca¨ity-backed slot ( ) antennas is in¨estigated theoretically. The method of moments MoM is used to find the magnetic currents in the slots rigorously. The currents are then used to find the mutual admittance using the reaction theorem. The results are compared w
