Abstract

For phased array applications, printed antennas integrated with feed networks and active circuits in multiple layers of dielectric substrates and ground planes are of interest. These types of geometries require a full-wave analysis of the radiation and coupling between various layers in the multilayer environment. A general purpose computer routine for infinite array analysis of multilayered antenna geometries is being developed at University of Massachusetts, and can handle rectangular dipoles, slots and patches aperture coupled, or proximity coupled to a microstripline, slotline or stripline with multiple layers of dielectrics and ground planes. It uses a full-wave spectral domain moment method. The results of the unified infinite array analysis are discussed.
