摘 要:This paper proposes a wideband cavity-backed slotted patch antenna, loaded with a magneto-electric(ME)-dipole and fed by a microstrip line, for millimeter wave(mm-Wave) applications. The coupled-feed cavitybacked slotted patch antenna is loaded with the ME-dipole. The slotted patch antenna serves as both a radiator and a ground for the ME-dipole. The combination of the ME-dipole antenna and the slotted patch antenna realizes a –10 dB impedance bandwidth covering over 22.86–44.35 GHz(63.9%). The pattern of the antenna element remains stable throughout this bandwidth. The proposed broadband antenna unit not only realizes single linearly polarized(LP)radiation but also can be designed for dual-LP radiation. The dual-polarized radiation can be achieved by changing the slot of the patch antenna to a crossed slot and altering the ME-dipole antenna to a dual-polarization form. A 2 × 2 dual-polarized array has been designed, fabricated, and tested. A novel dual-polarized feeding network is *** achieve higher isolation, broadband in-phase feed and differential feed are adopted, respectively. A low-loss single to the differential structure is proposed for differential feeding. The simulated isolation of the array is higher than 40 d *** results show that the dual-polarized 2 × 2 array has an overlapping bandwidth of 52.3%(|S11| –10 dB and |S21| –30 dB) with a peak gain of 14 dBi. The proposed antenna, featuring a wide overall bandwidth, low cost,and good radiation performance, is well suited for mm-Wave applications.
