Abstract :
A novel design of a printed-planar quasi-parabolic reflector antenna, fed by an integrated feeding line, is proposed for V-band wireless systems. The antenna is made of concentric metallic rings printed on a multi-layer low-loss substrate. The radiation performance of the designed antenna is investigated using full-wave simulations. The antenna shows a maximum gain of 14 dBi at 64 GHz with 3dB gain bandwidth of more than 24 GHz. The simulated -10dB-impedance bandwidth of the antenna is approximately 14 GHz covering almost entire FCC-60 GHz band (i.e. from 57 to 64 GHz).
