Design of Periodically Corrugated Dielectric Antennas for Millimeter-Wave Applications

Abstract

Periodic dielectric waveguide structures were extensively analyzed and were understood in the context of integrated-optics theory. Recently, it has been also demonstrated experimentally that this class of structures offer many advantages for use as millimeter-wave antennas. A considerable effort is currently under way to fully develop its potential. Making use of the available analytic method previously devised, we have carried out an extensive and systematic analysis of periodically corrugated dielectric antennas. The results are exhibited in a way that is most pertinent to millimeter-wave applications. On the basis of the obtained numerical data, a set of design guidelines for the corrugated dielectric antennas is established herein.
