Hollow-Waveguide-Fed Wideband Terahertz Antenna Array Using Patch Subarray
This work presents a wideband and high-gain microstrip patch antenna array operating in terahertz frequency range. The array consists of 4 × 2 patch subarrays designed using PCB technology. These subarrays are fed by a hollow waveguide feeding network fabricated through mechanical milling. The proposed array exhibits a wideband impedance bandwidth of 24%, covering a frequency range from 153 to 195 GHz. The highest gain of the proposed array is 21.9 dBi. The proposed array holds great promise for applications in terahertz wireless communications.
