ANTENNA UNIT AND COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT
An antenna unit includes a first antenna portion and a second antenna portion that individually transmit or receive a wireless signal, and a ground portion electrically connected to the first antenna portion and the second antenna portion and including a portion positioned between the first antenna portion and the second antenna portion. A through-hole that resonates with a given frequency is provided at a position of the ground portion between the first antenna portion and the second antenna portion.
Multi-layer, multi-steering antenna array for millimeter wave applications
Examples disclosed herein relate to a multi-layer, multi-steering (“MLMS”) antenna array for millimeter wavelength applications. The MLMS antenna array includes a superelement antenna array layer comprising a plurality of superelement subarrays, in which each superelement subarray of the plurality of superelement subarrays includes a plurality of radiating slots for radiating a transmission signal. The MLMS antenna array also includes a power division layer configured to serve as a feed to the superelement antenna array layer, in which the power division layer includes a dielectric layer interposed between a plurality of conductive layers. The MLMS antenna array also includes a top layer disposed on the superelement antenna array layer. The top layer may include a superstrate or a metamaterial antenna array. Other examples disclosed herein include a radar system for use in an autonomous driving vehicle.

Waveguide with Lobe Suppression
This document describes techniques, apparatuses, and systems for a waveguide with lobe suppression. A waveguide is described that includes a pipe for containing a dielectric, the pipe defining an open end to a longitudinal direction through the pipe. An array of radiating slots is formed through a surface of the pipe and in communication with the dielectric. To suppress grating lobes in an antenna pattern, the waveguide includes at least one parasitic groove that is separate from the pipe and with at least a portion of a length that is parallel to the array of radiating slots. In this way, the waveguide provides an antenna pattern where grating lobes are suppressed or substantially reduced.
