Abstract
In this communication, a two-port ceramic based array radiator at mm-wave frequency range is structured and analysed. 3-dB power divider based microstrip feed line is utilised to excite the rectangular aperture. The same aperture is used to feed the ceramic, which creates fundamental hybrid mode (HEM11δ ) inside the dielectric resonator. Feeding structure is designed on RT Duroid substrate having thickness 0.254 mm and permittivity 2.2. The length and width of the substrate is 60.0 mm and 30.0 mm respectively. Alumina material is used to design the ceramic having permittivity 9.8. The exclusive feature of the proposed antenna design is to get highly directional pattern along with high gain (more than 13.5 dBi) in mm-wave frequency range with the assistance of 1*4 array structure. Orthogonal orientation of antenna ports adds the polarization diversity concept, which in turns improve the isolation level more than 50 dB. Measured results confirm that the designed antenna works effectively in between 31.5–32.8 GHz. Broadside radiation pattern and good value of Envelop correlation coefficient (less than 0.1)/Diversity gain (10.0 dB) make the designed antenna employable for n257 frequency band of 5G mm-wave applications.
