Abstract

Substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) cavity-backed antenna arrays have advantages of low-profile, high-gain and low-cost fabrication. However, traditional SIW cavity-backed antenna arrays usually load with extra feeding networks, which make the whole arrays larger and more complex. A novel 4 × 4 SIW cavity-backed antenna array without using individual feeding network is presented in this letter. The proposed antenna array consists of sixteen SIW cavities connected by inductive windows as feeding network and wide slots on the surface of each cavity as radiating part. Without loading with extra feeding network, the array is compact.
