This paper presents a linear antenna array system with a compact corporate feed network. The antenna elements are probe fed circularly polarized microstrip patch antennas. By using probe feed topology, it is possible to combine all the antenna elements on the backside of the array. Besides, the overall size of the feed network is reduced with the proposed special corporate feed topology. An 8×1 linear array is designed and produced as the building block of a larger 2D array. The antenna array's return loss, radiation pattern and polarization characteristics give good agreement with the numerical calculations.

A Low-Profile DielectricWaveguide Altimeter Antenna Haykir, Yigit; Dagdeviren, Birkan; Korkmaz, Anil Direnc; Demir, Şimşek (2020-08-01) In this paper, design and implementation of a compact, low-profile and low-cost altimeter antenna is presented. A top-open dielectric waveguide is utilized to obtain a radiation pattern that illuminates from 20 to 70 degrees on the elevation plane. The proposed antenna pair can be used efficiently as a radar altimeter antenna in the course of landing. The antenna can cope with high skin temperatures, especially in supersonic flights because a high-temperature resistant dielectric material is used. Satisfact...
A Hybrid Antenna Element for Travelling Wave Dual-Plane Monopulse Slotted Waveguide Arrays Gültepe, Gökhan; Doğan, Doğanay; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem (2018-12-10) A novel antenna element for low loss and low-profile dual-plane monopulse arrays is proposed. The travelling wave array has both sum and difference distributions in azimuth. The designed element is the unit cell of an interleaved slotted waveguide array feeding wideband printed antennas via probes inserted into waveguides from the slots. The use of printed antennas enhances the narrow sidelobe and efficiency bandwidth of the closely-spaced slotted waveguide arrays by up to 20%. The unit cells are modelled a...
A reconfigurable RF MEMS triple stub impedance matching network Unlu, M.; Topalli, K.; Atasoy, H.I.; Temocin, E.U.; Istanbulluoglu, I.; Bayraktar, O.; Demir, Şimşek; Civi, O.A.; Koç, Seyit Sencer; Akın, Tayfun (2006-09-12) This paper presents a reconligurable triple stub impedance matching network using RF MEMS technology centered at 10GHz. The device is capable of covering impedances on the whole Smith Chart. The device structure consists of three variable length stubs which are designed as distributed MEMS transmission lines and two lambda(g)/8 length CPW transmission fines connecting the stubs. The variable length stubs are implemented with 12 MEMS switches over CPW lines and CPW lines connecting the switches. lambda(g)/8 ...
A Novel UWB Slot Antenna with a Self-Complementary Matching Network Ojaroudi, Mohammad; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem (2015-11-03) In this paper a simple printed slot antenna with an enhanced bandwidth based on self-complementary structures is presented for UWB applications. The proposed antenna consists of a square radiating patch with a microstrip feed-line defected by an inverted U-shaped slot on one side, a rectangular slot and a defected ground plane by an inverted U-shaped strip protruded from rectangular slot on the other side. The antenna provides a wide usable fractional bandwidth of more than 100% (3.2-10.5 GHz). This large o...
A monolithic phased array using 3-bit distributed RF MEMS phase shifters Topalli, Kagan; Aydın Çivi, Hatice Özlem; Demir, Şimşek; Koç, Seyit Sencer; Akın, Tayfun (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2008-02-01) This paper presents a novel electronically scanning phased-array antenna with 128 switches monolithically implemented using RF microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology. The structure, which is designed at 15 GHz, consists of four linearly placed microstrip patch antennas, 3-bit distributed RF MEMS low-loss phase shifters, and a corporate feed network. MEMS switches and high-Q metal-air-metal capacitors are employed as loading elements in the phase shifter. The system is fabricated monolithically usi...
