Antenna Pattern2 Charles

This document outlines Charles Tumbaga's final project for his Microwave Engineering course at San Jose State University. The project involves designing and testing a slot antenna to radiate at 2.4 GHz. The document discusses the theory behind slot antennas, common uses, the specific design dimensions for the 2.4 GHz antenna, the testing procedure, results showing the radiation patterns, and plans for future work modeling the antenna in HFSS software.

The Theory
Waveguide Slot Antennas have horizontal polarization
Babinets principle

Figure 1:Slot to Dipole Relation [1]

The Theory
Waveguide cutoff frequencies still apply
Radiation occurs when slot is not directly in the center of
the waveguide
Allows very high transmission of EM waves
To excite the wave, there must be a coupling of g/4 for E field
