Abstract
A compact high-isolation self-diplexing antenna is designed on a single-layered substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) cavity for dual-frequency communication in C-band. The antenna design procedure is straightforward. The antenna is backed by an SIW cavity for possible low back-lobe radiation and easy circuit integration. One rectangular and one triangular patch are created on the top-side of the SIW cavity to radiate at 4.18 GHz and 7.8 GHz respectively. Two planar inset-feed lines orthogonal to each other, are employed to excite the resonator. The inset depths of the feedlines are designed to obtain low interference and high isolation. The antenna achieves peak gain of 5.88 dBi and 6.62 dBi at lower and upper resonant frequencies respectively. The antenna supports independent frequency tuning-design and easy frequency-ratio control. The proposed design is fabricated on a RT/Duroid 5870 substrate and is characterized for validation.
