Abstract :
Designing phased-array antennas for millimeter-wave systems becomes difficult because of anomalous gain variation across elements. The performance of each antenna element varies significantly depending on its location on a finite ground plane. Based on simulation and measurement of 60-GHz patch antennas, we explain which design parameters determine specific gain variations.
