Abstract :
A dual band 2D leaky wave antenna is presented. The antenna is constructed from a double layer partially reflective surface suspended above a metallic ground plane, forming two Fabry Perot cavities corresponding to the two different resonant frequencies. The paper demonstrates the successful operation of the antenna through simulation and measurement.
