Abstract :
A novel substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) Yagi-Uda antenna for 60 GHz applications is presented. The proposed antenna has the merits of low profile and light weight and is suitable for direct integration with the SIW wireless front end. Simulated results are compared with measured data and good agreement is reported.
