Its radiation efficiency is 96% and a total efficiency is 85.3% at 12 GHz.

Abstract:

This paper investigates the design and performance of an efficient, medium-gain, front-end antenna of the type of radial line slot array (RLSA), for wireless communication systems. The antenna consists of two conducting metal plates forming a radial waveguide. The top plate is composed of six rings of radiating slots in a spiral pattern. A single coaxial connector is used to feed the electromagnetic energy from the bottom of the radial waveguide. The antenna has a radius of 0.15 m and operating at a frequency of 12 GHz. It was simulated using Computer Simulation Technology (CST) Microwave Studio 2019 and the results show that the antenna has an acceptable level of impedance matching in the frequency range from 11 GHz to 13 GHz, with a peak directivity of 25.6 dBi and a peak realized gain of 25 dBic at 12 GHz. Its radiation efficiency is 96% and a total efficiency is 85.3% at 12 GHz.
