Dielectric Antennas for Millimeter-Wave Applications.

Abstract

This report describes the results of an investigation of dielectric-based antennas for millimeter wavelengths. Two types of antennas have been studied, viz., Uniform and tapered dielectric rod antennas of rectangular cross-section which radiate in the endfire direction; and dielectric rods with discontinuities which perform as frequency scannable leaky-wave antennas. Experimental and theoretic design information and measured data on radiation pattern of both types of antennas are provided in the paper. (Author)
