Abstract
The paper discusses the possibility of generating a pseudo-Bessel beam, with a propagation distance of several hundreds of wavelengths in microwave and millimeter frequency band, by using a radial line slot array (RLSA). A specific application for non-contact microwave detection of buried mines has been considered as test case. The design benefits of a holographic approach to assure the required aperture field distribution and makes use of an ad hoc optimization tool to control the antenna slot layout. The predicted and measured antenna behaviors show that high efficiency and polarization purity can be obtained by such a compact and flat antenna, achieving at the same time both manufacturing and setup simplicity. © 2014 IEEE.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
