H-Plane Coupled Yagi-Uda mm-Wave ESPAR Array

A Yagi-Uda electronically steerable parasitic array radiator (ESPAR) antenna array is proposed for mm-Wave beamsteering applications. The 3-element array is designed using YagiUda antenna elements, each with a dipole element and a ground plane reflector, coupled in the H-plane. The design operates from 27.5 GHz − 30 GHz with 9% usable fractional bandwidth. By terminating the parasitic element feed lines with tunable reactive loads, the array is capable of beam steering to +/- 30° in simulation with 6 dBi gain.

Abstract

A Yagi-Uda electronically steerable parasitic array radiator (ESPAR) antenna array is proposed for mm-Wave beamsteering applications. The 3-element array is designed using YagiUda antenna elements, each with a dipole element and a ground plane reflector, coupled in the H-plane. The design operates from 27.5 GHz − 30 GHz with 9% usable fractional bandwidth. By terminating the parasitic element feed lines with tunable reactive loads, the array is capable of beam steering to +/- 30° in simulation with 6 dBi gain.
