Abstract :
In this paper a Fabry-Perot cavity (FPC) has been used to design a 60 GHz single feed directive antenna. The FPC antenna is made by a ground plane covered by a frequency selective surface (FSS). We have provided simple design guidelines based on a transmission line model. Numerical simulations confirm the design guidelines and antenna performances.
