In the paper, wideband antenna arrays aimed at microwave imaging applications and SAR applications operating at Ka band were designed.The antenna array feeding network is realized by a low-loss SIW technology.Moreover, we have replaced the large feed network comprised of various T and Y junctions by a simple broadband network of compact size to more reduce losses in the substrate BAG integrated waveguide and also save space on the PCB.
The designed power 8-way divider is complemented by a wideband substrate integrated waveguide to a grounded coplanar waveguide transition and directly connected to the antenna elements.The measured results of antenna array are consistent with our simulation.Obtained results of the developed array demonstrated improvement compared to previously developed binary feed sports and outdoor networks with microstrip or SIW splitters.
