Abstract :
In this article a dielectric rod waveguide antenna for 220-325 GHz is presented. Simulations for determining antenna optimal geometry are performed. Measurement results of the radiation pattern are shown and compared with the simulation results at 310 GHz. Matching of the antenna with a metallic waveguide is experimentally studied.
