Abstract

A novel polarization reconfigurable leaky-wave (LW) antenna based on half-mode substrate integrated waveguide (HMSIW) is presented. Compared with SIW antenna, HMSIW reduces the volume of antenna a lot with similar capability [1]. The proposed antenna consists of a pair of symmetrical +45°/-45° linearly polarized leaky lines. By changing the means of excitation, six different polarization states including four linear polarization (LP) states and two circular polarization (CP) ones are verified. Because the antenna is designed with a balanced composite right/left-handed (CRLH) structure, under each polarization states, the proposed antenna can achieve continuous beam-steering from left-handed (LH) region to right-handed (RH) region as frequency changes. Parameters including S-parameters, gain and axial ratio (for CP states) are demonstrated. Measured results are closely consistent with the simulation.
