This work presents the study and the development of a Leaky Wave Antenna, based on a Composite Right-Left Handed transmission line and a Substrate Integrated Waveguide. The antenna system is designed to work in the frequency band of 26 GHz - 30 GHz, demonstrates beamsteering functionalities and a high gain. The conducted study is envisioned in the background of the fifth generation mobile networks (5G), in order to fulfil the requirements for the realization of a small cell antenna.

Abstract

This work presents the study and the development of a Leaky Wave Antenna, based on a Composite Right-Left Handed transmission line and a Substrate Integrated Waveguide. The antenna system is designed to work in the frequency band of 26 GHz - 30 GHz, demonstrates beamsteering functionalities and a high gain. The conducted study is envisioned in the background of the fifth generation mobile networks (5G), in order to fulfil the requirements for the realization of a small cell antenna.
