Enabling Wide Bandwidth in Substrate-Integrated Waveguide Slot Antennas by Using Low-Index Metamaterials

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Amir Jafargholi

This paper presents a solution to overcome the inherently limited bandwidth of substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) slot antennas. It is analytically shown that by decreasing the permittivity of a dielectric loaded slot antenna, the resulting bandwidth inc ...
