Popis: In this paper, a compact two-dimensional multi-beam antenna fed by two-layer SIW Butler matrix is designed at 30 GHz. This multibeam antenna can generate four beams in two planes. The simulation results demonstrate that the beam directions are (30°, 35°), (115°, 20°), (−75°, 25°), and (−135°, 40°), respectively. The gains for each beam are almost 9 dBi. This multibeam antenna takes the advantages of low loss, cost effective, compact size and ease of integration, which can be applied in 5G communication systems.
