    A novel ku-band circularly-polarized horn antenna based on a ridged wall
    (IEEE, 2023) Marzo Oyarbide, Andoni; Teberio Berdún, Fernando; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren
    In this paper, a novel wideband (31.5 % bandwidth) circularly-polarized antenna based on a ridged wall is presented. A pair of ridges on the inner wall of the horn serves as an inbuilt polarizer, which can generate left-hand or right-hand circular polarization without any additional polarizer. The ridged wall is placed at 45° with respect to the input port linearly polarized wave to generate a 90° phase delay and obtain the desired circular polarization at the aperture. The simulated results show that the antenna works great in the whole Ku satellite band (from 10.7 to 14.7 GHz) with more than 20 dB return loss and below 1 dB axial ratio. The antenna can be fabricated using traditional computer numerical control machining techniques or the new 3D metal additive manufacturing processes.

    3-D printed horn antennas and components performance for space and telecommunications
    (IEEE, 2018) Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Iriarte Galarregui, Juan Carlos; Caballero Nagore, Rubén; Valcázar Berdofe, Daniel; Goñi, Mikel; Martínez, Aitor; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoaren eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritzaren
    In this work, a study of the performance of several antennas and components, manufactured using an accurate stereolithography 3D printer and resin for maximum accuracy and detail, is carried out. Electroless plating of the components to cover the pieces with a thick copper layer to improve their mechanical resistance is undertaken. Several SatCom horn antennas and components are designed, manufactured, and tested. A detailed study of a spline horn antenna and a filter is covered. These results are compared to the metallic lathe manufactured versions. Conclusions are derived from these tests, which are useful to improve additive manufactured components in future versions.

    Real-time imaging with frequency scanning array antenna for industrial inspection applications at W band
    (Springer, 2018) Larumbe Gonzalo, Belén; Laviada, Jaime; Ibáñez Loinaz, Asier; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica
    A real-time imaging system based on a frequency scanning antenna for conveyor belt setups is presented in this paper. The frequency scanning antenna together with an inexpensive parabolic reflector operates at the W band enabling the detection of details with dimensions in the order of 2 mm. In addition, a low level of sidelobes is achieved by optimizing unequal dividers to window the power distribution for sidelobe reduction. Furthermore, the quality of the images is enhanced by the radiation pattern properties. The performance of the system is validated by showing simulation as well as experimental results obtained in real time, proving the feasibility of these kinds of frequency scanning antennas for cost-effective imaging applications.

    Evanescently fed electromagnetic band-gap horn antennas and arrays
    (IEEE, 2012) Khromova, Irina; Ederra Urzainqui, Íñigo; Teniente Vallinas, Jorge; Gonzalo García, Ramón; Esselle, Karu P.; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    The design of a horn antenna based on electromagnetic band-gap structures (EBGs) and fed by evanescent fields in the containing periodic structure is presented. Such all-dielectric antennas can form compact arrays and provide a promising solution for millimeter, submillimeter, and terahertz (THz) devices. An evanescently fed EBG horn antenna design based on a woodpile structure and operating at frequencies around 110 GHz is presented, together with experimental and simulation results for an analogous scaled-up prototype antenna operating in the Ku-band. It exhibits a 9%bandwidth and an average level of maximum gain approximately equal to 14.6 dBi.
