With slot pairs loaded on patch cells, an aperturecoupled slotted-mushroom MTS antenna is designed to obtain broadband radiation characteristicswith a compact size. To suppress the backward radiation of this antenna, the printed ridge gapwaveguide (PRGW) technology with a perfect magnetic conductor (PMC) shielding made ofmushroom unit-cells underneath the microstrip feeding line is applied. On this basis, a 4×4 MTSantenna array with the PRGW feed network is developed. Simulated results show that the FBR canbe highly improved by over 16 dB within the entire bandwidth. To validate the design, a prototypeof the proposed antenna is fabricated. Measured results show that an FBR greater than 28 dB canbe obtained over a 24% impedance bandwidth (from 24.9 GHz to 31.7 GHz) with the reflectioncoefficient less than 10 dB. The measured antenna gain ranges from 17 dBi to 19.2 dBi and thecorresponding measured aperture efficiencies are 35% and 45.6%. The measured results alsosuggest that the proposed MTS antenna possesses -35 dB cross-polarization level and stable radiation patterns. In addition, the proposed antenna remains a very low profile of 1.7 mm (0.17λ_(0) at28 GHz). All the achieved features indicate that the proposed MTS antenna is an importantcandidate for B5G and 6G wireless communication.展开更多
