Abstract :
This paper presents the results of an investigation of leaky wave antennas designed on a substrate integrated waveguide. The antennas are of the following types: antenna radiating from a slot in the top waveguide wall, CRLH and dual band CRLH leaky wave antennas. The substrate integrated waveguide can easily be integrated with planar microwave circuits. Antennas designed on this transmission line have a planar structure, and can be fabricated by a standard PCB technology, so they are suitable for mass production.
