In order to realize a CP slot array arranged at a spacing of one guided wavelength on a broad wall of the waveguide, it is proposed to place two CP MSA elements on each cross slot with a dielectric substrate. In this paper, a series-fed two-element CP MSA array excited by a cross slot on a broad wall of the rectangular waveguide is designed as an element of a waveguide-fed CP planar array on the broad wall by using ANSYS HFSS. The design frequency is 11.2 GHz and an X-band standard waveguide is used. It is confirmed by the simulation that CP radiation with an axial ratio of 2.2 dB as well as a sharp main beam in the waveguide axis plane for grating lobe suppression can be obtained by the designed MSA array at the design frequency.","PeriodicalId":433151,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Workshop on Electromagnetics: Applications and Student Innovation Competition (iWEM)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122120881","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two thin cylindrical passive targets were randomly placed in the target area, where a Gaussian pulse was sent towards the area, and the reflected signals were received by an antenna array. After the signal was time-reversed, time-gating was applied to the signals to separate the direct path and multipath signals. Then, the reverse mode was done by back-propagation, and finally, cross-correlating the direct path and multipath signals' trajectory. Peaks in the electric field showed the estimated position of the targets.","PeriodicalId":433151,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE International Workshop on Electromagnetics: Applications and Student Innovation Competition (iWEM)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127374772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
