研究目的
To propose a side lobe level (SLL) suppression technique using lossy superstrate for robust antenna design, optimizing dielectric parameters based on the spectral Green’s function to achieve low SLL in microstrip antenna arrays.
研究成果
The proposed technique using lossy superstrate effectively suppresses SLL in microstrip antenna arrays, achieving an SLL lower than -35dB under reasonable fabrication tolerance. The method is applicable to antennas with various polarizations and offers a promising approach for robust antenna design.
研究不足
The fabrication tolerance and the effect of the feed network on SLL suppression are significant challenges. The lossy superstrate's realization and parameter extraction require further investigation.
