Abstract

In this article, two configurations of novel dual-band half-mode substrate integrated waveguide (HMSIW) leaky-wave antennas are presented. The first proposed antenna radiates linearly polarized (LP) waves in the lower band and circularly polarized waves in the upper band when the unit cells are cascaded sequentially. The second antenna, where the sidewall via of the HMSIW unit cells is connected alternatingly, provides simultaneous dual beams with different polarization in the upper operational band in addition to the LP beam in the lower operational band. The unit cells of the two antennas are analyzed in terms of their dispersion behaviors. Finally, the performance of both the antennas is experimentally verified.
