Antenna for suppressing the gain of side lobes
An antenna for suppressing the gain of side lobes includes a substrate, tandem antenna units arranged on the substrate and each including a first feed line and radiating elements, and the width of the radiating elements decreasing gradually from the middle of the first feed line to the two ends; and a power divider disposed on the substrate and including a feeding port, a second feed line with middle connected to the feeding port, and transmission lines, connected to the second feed line respectively. The output powers of the transmission lines decrease gradually from the middle of the second feed line to the two ends, and the transmission lines are respectively connected to the first feed lines. Thereby, the present invention can effectively suppress the gain of the side lobe both in YZ plane and the XZ plane, and improve target detection.

Metamaterial antenna array with isolated antennas
An antenna array that utilizes ground guard rings and metamaterial structures is disclosed. In certain embodiments, the antenna array is constructed from a plurality of antenna unit cells, wherein each antenna unit cell is identical. The antenna unit cell comprises a top surface, that contains a patch antenna and a ground guard ring. A reactive impedance surface (RIS) layer is disposed beneath the top surface and contains the metamaterial structures. The metamaterial structures are configured to present an inductance to the patch antennas, thereby allowing the patch antennas to be smaller than would otherwise be possible. In some embodiments, the metamaterial structures comprise hollow square frames. An antenna array constructed using this antenna unit cell has less coupling than conventional antenna arrays, which results in better performance. Furthermore, this new antenna array also requires less space than conventional antenna arrays.
