Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Today, millimeter-wave band is drawn by strong attentions.In the millimeter-wave band, formed-beam scannning plays an important role. However, conventional mechanical scanning has serious problems: system is large and heavy and scanning speed is slow. In this research, a small sized antenna fabricated by MEMS technology to have a function of high speed and wide angle scanning is investigated. A fabricated silicon actuator has been successfully demonstrated to scan + and - 20 degs. with a speed of 1 kHz. Then, a silicon antenna forming Yagi-Uda array antenna is designed by considering RF characteristic.
