Abstract :
This paper presents millimeter-wave waveguide-type phased array antennas using low-loss engineering plastics not only to reduce cost but also to obtain high performances with complex configurations. That is a Cyclo-Olefin Polymer (COP) waveguide horn array antenna which is fabricated by injection molding process.
