Abstract
A design of a traveling wave chain antenna array
operating at 60 GHz frequency band is presented in this
paper. The antenna consists of several parallel
microstrip chains printed on an LTCC substrate. The array
feed network is constructed using substrate integrated
waveguide (SIW) technology to minimise
the transmission line losses. The presented design is
scalable in frequency and in size, and a high antenna
gain can be achieved with a large array. A test structure
of size 27 mm * 22 mm * 1.1 mm is realised on Ferro A6-M
LTCC. The antenna including the WR-15 to SIW transition
has the measured maximum gain of 22 dBi at 62 GHz. The
simulated maximum radiation efficiency of the antenna
alone is 74%
