Abstract :
A SIW- series fed DRA linear array was designed at millimeter wave range using two configurations. Then, a simple circuit model for the proposed antenna array was presented as a fast and easy way to predict the overall antenna return loss saving the huge CAD computation time especially for large arrays.
