Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A two-dimensional Rotman-lens multi-beam array-antenna was developed by using five-layer substrates of fluoro-carbon resin film with 1 mm thickness. Following three techniques are developed; (1) a two-dimensional Rotman-lens in which an H-plane Rotman-lens for power distribution for each layer and an E-plane Rotman-lens for power distribution in the layer direction, (2) a transmission-line transitions from a hollow waveguide on the back to a substrate integrated waveguide in each layer, (3) a radiating slot element that radiates from each layer of the multilayer substrate integrated waveguide. It was confirmed both by electromagnetic simulation and experiment that 9 multi-beams can be generated with 3 beams each with a pitch of about 25 degrees on the horizontal plane and a pitch of about 12 degrees on the vertical plane.
