Abstract

In this communication, a filtering leaky wave antenna based on half-mode substrate integrated waveguide (HMSIW) is proposed. The band-pass filtering response is achieved using periodic radiating slots element on high- low impedance substrate integrated waveguide. Apart from flexible filtering, the proposed antenna also shows wide range beam scanning from backward to forward quadrant of 68° in the operating frequency range of 7.7 GHz to 10.9 GHz with low dielectric material with a size of 6.73 λo. The proposed antenna is having a maximum gain of 14 dBi with gain variation of 2 dB in the operating range. To achieve continuous forward and backward beam scanning, open-stopband mitigation is necessary which is also discussed along with flexible frequency filtering.
