Abstract
A novel antenna array with new double-layer feed network and ME-dipoles is proposed. The antenna array consists of a full-corporate-feed air-full hollow-waveguide in the lower layer, a SIW feed network in the second layer, and ME-dipole antenna as the radiating elements which can be fabricated entirely with PCB technique. A simulated −10 dB impedance bandwidth wider than 25% and a gain up to 24 dBi for a 16×16-element array antenna are obtained in E-band, and the antenna is being fabricated.
