The apparatus may comprise a corrugated radio frequency choke disposed within the electromagnetic band gap cavity. At least one of the antenna element, the balun element, the electromagnetic band gap cavity, and the radio frequency choke may be fabricated using additive manufacturing.

A slot antenna apparatus that includes a waveguide including a sidewall having an edge, a first slot provided on the sidewall, a second slot provided on the sidewall, and a first dielectric member mountable in the first slot or the second slot, the first dielectric member having a first dielectric property.

An assembly for a detection system for a vehicle in an environment has a radar sensor positioned around a central boresight axis. The radar sensor includes an RF board with at least one antenna and a support bracket configured to secure the detection system to the vehicle. The support bracket has sloped walls forming a radiation aperture between the RF board and the environment. The sloped walls have distal ends distal to the radar sensor. A plurality of sloped flaps extend from the distal ends and slope inwardly from the distal ends towards the boresight axis to intercept radiation within the radiation aperture.

Embodiments of the present dislcosure provide methods, apparatuses, devices and systems related to the implementation of a multi-layer printed circuit board (PCB) radio-frequency antenna featuring, a printed radiating element coupled to an absorbing element embedded in the PCB. The embedded element is configured within the PCB layers to prevent out-of-phase reflections to the bore-sight direction.

An antenna assembly may include an antenna element, a radome structure disposed proximate to the antenna element and including a plurality of plasma elements, a driver circuit operably coupled to the plasma elements to selectively ionize individual ones of the plasma elements, and a controller. The controller may be operably coupled to the driver circuit to provide control of plasma density of the individual ones of the plasma elements. The plasma elements may include respective enclosures. At least some of the enclosures may have at least two peripheral edge surfaces substantially fully contacted by corresponding peripheral edge surfaces of adjacent enclosures at at least one section along a longitudinal length thereof.

A communication device includes a first substrate including antennas including a first antenna and a second antenna, and a battery including a principal surface and being used as a power source of a circuit connected to the antennas. The battery, when viewed in a direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the principal surface of the battery, is disposed between the first antenna and the second antenna, and a portion or all of the first antenna and the second antenna overlap with the battery, when viewed in a direction in parallel or substantially parallel to the principal surface of the battery.

A horn antenna array is provided with a plurality of horn antennas arranged in one direction. Each of the plurality of horn antennas includes two pairs of inclined planes, which define a frustum-shape horn, and on an electromagnetic wave incident side of the horn, ends of a pair of inclined planes arranged in the one direction out of the two pairs of inclined planes project from ends of the other pair of inclined planes out of the two pairs of inclined planes.

A beacon network includes a plurality of beacons arranged at predetermined positions to periodically or intermittently emit a signal wave including identification information, and a radio wave absorber to adjust an emission angle of the signal wave emitted from at least one of the plurality of beacons.

The present invention relates to an antenna, which can improve a front-to-rear ratio and cross-polarization isolation without changing a structure of a reflection panel. The antenna includes an antenna element and a reflection panel. The antenna element is disposed on the reflection panel. The antenna further includes a wave-absorbing material layer. The wave-absorbing material layer is disposed on one side of an outer surface, back to the antenna element, of the reflection panel.
