Popis: | In this communication, a Bull’s-Eye (BE) antenna with circular polarization (CP) based on ridge gap waveguide (RGW) technology is numerically and experimentally demonstrated. The structure is excited from the bottom with a standard WR-15 waveguide (V -band) coupled through a step transition to a ridgeline that ends in two orthogonal arms of different lengths to generate CP. Radiation is coupled to the top plate by a central diamond slot surrounded by the BE structure, which consists of four concentric periodic corrugations around the slot. Simulations and experimental results are in good agreement, with axial ratio below 1 dB at the operation frequency and peak gain of 18.4 dB. The antenna has right-handed CP (RHCP) with polarization discrimination of more than 30 dB.
