Abstract
A high-gain Bull´s-Eye leaky-wave horn antenna working at 77 GHz with sinusoidal profile has been designed, fabricated, and experimentally measured. The influence of the number of periods on the gain and beamwidth is numerically investigated. Experimental measurements show a high gain of 28.9 dB, with low sidelobe level and a very narrow beamwidth in good agreement with results obtained from simulations.
