| Popis: | This work deals with the design and development of a conformal series-fed antenna structure operating at the 60 GHz frequency. The proposed antenna operates from 57 GHz to 62 GHz with good return loss and radiation characteristics for 6G and beyond applications. The antenna is shown to give a good gain of more than 14.7 dBi with directional radiation beam in the hemispherical boresight direction. The fabricated prototype is verified with the simulated result, and it is found to be a good matching. The step-by-step antenna design process, parametric variation, and a detailed study are also reported. For a case study, this series-fed antenna conformal configuration is also embedded on a cylindrical structure. From this study, similar resonant and radiation performance characteristics are observed. Since the structure is compact, conformal, and gives better performance, it can be suitable for applications such as 6G, radar, guided missiles, body-centric medical imaging, etc. |
