Abstract:
A uniform half-width microstrip leaky wave antenna (HW-MLWA) featuring a single slot near the port is presented. This antenna operates across three frequency bands and can control the radiation pattern of the main beam in boresight directions by adjusting the operating frequency. The scanning angles for the main beam range from 13° to 38°, 41° to 48°, and 51° to 55° as the operating frequency sweeps through 4.15 to 4.75 GHz, 4.85 to 5.15 GHz, and 5.4 to 5.65 GHz, respectively. The maximum gains during the main beam scanning for the first, second, and third bands are 9.92 dBi, 9.2 dBi, and 8.6 dBi, with a maximum gain variation of 2.1 dB across all bands.Index Terms:
