Design of Planar High Gain Antenna

using SIW Cavity Hybrid Mode
Soumava Mukherjee, Animesh Biswas
Abstract— In this paper, a planar high gain slot antenna backed by a

rectangular Substrate Integrated Waveguide (SIW) cavity is presented.
The proposed antenna uses a narrow rectangular SIW cavity with high
length to width ratio. This modifies the conventional sinusoidal field
distribution of the cavity modes to generate a hybrid mode field
distribution with more field concentration at the center of the cavity. A
closed form expression is presented which represents the proposed
hybrid mode field distribution as a summation of multiple TEym10 cavity
modes. A slot antenna placed at the top plate of the proposed cavity is
excited by the hybrid mode. Calculation of far field radiation pattern of Fig. 1. (a) Top view and (b) side view of the proposed SIW narrow

However, due to large length-to-width ratio of the SIW cavity, (a)
there is a tendency to excite higher order modes of the proposed
cavity which degrades the out of band performance of the antenna.
Hence to prevent any unwanted higher order mode excitation, the
proposed slot antenna is modified by widening the central part of the
slot as shown in Fig. 4(a). The effect of the modification of the slot
shape is shown in Fig. 5. The response of the rectangular slot is
shown in dash dot line in Fig. 5 which exhibits the antenna
resonance at 9 GHz along with an additional higher order mode
resonance at 10.48 GHz which degrades the out of band performance
