Tolpa for mm-wave: A wideband low profile, omnidirectional vertically polarized antenna

Jean-François Zürcher

In an article (Zürcher, Microwave Opt Technol Lett 55 (2013), 516–521) published in 2013, a new antenna called tripod omnidirectional low profile Antenna has been presented. It is vertically polarized and has a radiation pattern similar to the classical mo ...

A printed transition for matching improvement of SIW horn antennas

Juan Ramon Mosig, Jean-François Zürcher, Marc Esquius Morote, Benjamin Fuchs

The substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology allows to construct several types of commonly used antennas in a planar way. However, frequency limitations associated to commercial substrates appear in the implementation of certain types of antennas, e ...

Novel thin and compact H-plane SIW horn antenna

Juan Ramon Mosig, Jean-François Zürcher, Marc Esquius Morote

The substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology allows to construct several types of commonly used antennas in a planar way. However, some practical constraints limit their performances when frequencies below 20 GHz are considered. In the case of SIW h ...

TOLPA (Tripod Omnidirectional Low Profile Antenna): a vertically polarized antenna with 90% bandwidth

Jean-François Zürcher

A new vertically polarized omnidirectional antenna, inspired by an old design, has been studied, optimized, realized and measured. With a radiation pattern similar to the classical monopole on a ground plane, the proposed antenna concept provides a much la ...

Double resonance spectroscopic studies using a new generation of microfabricated microwave cavity

Anja Skrivervik, Jean-François Zürcher, Maddalena Violetti

We evaluate the potential of a new generation microwave cavity by double resonance spectroscopic studies. Both, the cell and the microwave cavity are microfabricated. This allows a substantial size reduction for the physics package, without compromising th ...

Extended SIW for TEm0 and TE(0)n Modes and Slotline Excitation of the TE01 Mode

Juan Ramon Mosig, Jean-François Zürcher, Marc Esquius Morote, Benjamin Fuchs

A substrate integrated guide which allows the propagation of both TEm0 and TE0n modes is presented, the Extended Substrate Integrated Waveguide (ESIW). Its structure combines the working principles of SIWs and SINRD guides. While the performances of the ES ...

Broadband Ka-band rectangular waveguide to substrate integrated waveguide transition

Juan Ramon Mosig, Jean-François Zürcher, Rafal Glogowski

A simple right-angle transition between a rectangular waveguide (RWG) and a substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) is proposed. Two slots etched on the broad wall of the SIW are used to couple the waveguides. To obtain a wide bandwidth of operation the slots ...
