    Broadband frequency and angular response of a sinusoidal bull’s eye antenna
    (IOP Publishing, 2016) Beaskoetxea Gartzia, Unai; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Beruete Díaz, Miguel; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    A thorough experimental study of the frequency and beaming angle response of a metallic leaky-wave bull’s eye antenna working at 77 GHz with a sinusoidally corrugated profile is presented. The beam scanning property of these antennas as frequency is varied is experimentally demonstrated and corroborated through theoretical and numerical results. From the experimental results the dispersion diagram of the n = −1 and n = −2 space harmonics is extracted, and the operation at different frequency regimes is identified and discussed. In order to show the contribution of each half of the antenna, numerical examples of the nearfield behavior are also displayed. Overall, experimental results are in good qualitative and quantitative agreement with theoretical and numerical calculations. Finally, an analysis of the beamwidth as a function of frequency is performed, showing that it can achieve values below 1.5° in a fractional bandwidth of 4% around the operation frequency, which is an interesting frequency-stable broadside radiation.

    77-GHz high-gain bull’s-eye antenna with sinusoidal profile
    (IEEE, 2015) Beaskoetxea Gartzia, Unai; Pacheco-Peña, Víctor; Orazbayev, Bakhtiyar; Akalin, Tahsin; Maci, Stefano; Navarro Cía, Miguel; Ingeniería Eléctrica y Electrónica; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa eta Elektronikoa
    A high-gain Bull’s-Eye leaky-wave horn antenna working at 77 GHz with sinusoidal profile has been designed, fabricated, and experimentally measured. The influence of the number of periods on the gain and beamwidth is numerically investigated. Experimental measurements show a high gain of 28.9 dB, with low sidelobe level and a very narrow beamwidth in good agreement with results obtained from simulations.
