Abstract

A compact multilayer broadband antenna with partial superstrate layer, EBG layer and reflector surface operating at 140 GHz has been proposed for millimeter wave applications. The antenna consisting of radiating patch elements has been designed on a very thin flexible substrate of thickness 0.110 mm. The upper layer material consists of removed periodic blocks in the superstrate dielectric. An EBG layer has been stacked above this partial superstrate with hexagonal shaped elements. This compact (2×2) mm2 antenna provides a peak gain of about 10 dB with ultralow side lobe levels of about-32 dB. The bandwidth for the operating frequency is about 15 GHz. The proposed antenna can be integrated with mm-wave circuits for range of applications such as automotive radars and sensing.
