3D printed directional antenna
Dvořák, Václav ; Horák, Jiří (referee) ; Láčík, Jaroslav (advisor)
This master thesis deals with a study of directional antennas, followed by their design and optimalization of horn antenna based on SIW for Ka band (26,5- 40 GHz). The first part of the thesis contains the theoretical analysis of the different types of directional antennas, also the SIW technology is described here. It also describes the 3D printing technology by means of which the final antenna should be made. The next part of this work is about design of horn antenna based on SIW. Simulation and optimization of the antenna will be done using the CST Microwave Studio. The final part of the thesis deals with evaluation of achieved results.

High-Gain Millimeter-Wave Lens Horn Antennas
With Suppressed Side-Lobe Radiation
Kaděra, Petr
The paper introduces high-gain conical lens horn antennas with suppressed side lobes for the frequency band 71-76/81-86 GHz (E-band) which is dedicated for point-to-point communication. Two concepts of dielectric lenses are proposed. The first lens is of hyperbolical shape and the other one is flat with perforation based on a transmitarray. Both of the proposed antennas were simulated in CST MWS. The gain is above 38 dBi and the side-lobes exceed -15 dB level.

H-plane SIW Howrn Antenna for On-body Communication
Cupal, Miroslav
The substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) technology allows us to construct several types of low-profile antennas. One of these antennas is h-plane SIW horn antenna. However, this antenna shows constraints if thickness of the substrate is smaller than λ/10. A modified h-plane horn antenna to be used close to human body tissue is presented in this paper. Attention is paid to the decrease of the elevation angle of the main beam in E-plane. The antenna has been developed for wireless links of on body communication.

Antenna system for car radar
Zechmeister, Jaroslav ; Hazdra, Pavel (referee) ; Láčík, Jaroslav (advisor)
This thesis deals with the design of lens antennas for automotive radar in 77 GHz bandwidth. The work explains methods of designing waveguides as well as horn antennas and dielectric lens. A simulation of three designed horn antennas is performed in CST Microwave Studio. Antennas with spherical and hyperbolical lens are simulated as well and subsequently optimized for maximal gain. The thesis also investigates effects of the lens permittivity on its properties. Furthermore, the work deals with a design of an antenna system with minimalized antenna coupling. Nylon, ABS and photopolymer lens are designed and compared afterwards. ABS and photopolymer lens were produced by 3D print

Horn antenna with suppressed side-lobe radiation
Kaděra, Petr ; Puskely, Jan (referee) ; Mikulášek, Tomáš (advisor)
This master´s thesis is focused on the ways of possible realisation of the directive horn antenna with suppressed side lobes in the frequency bands 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz. In this thesis a detailed research of the feasible options including parameters comparison and assessment of pros and cons of the particular solutions has been performed. Among the specified technical requirements, the emphasis has been placed on the manufacturing options and low cost availability of the materials applicable for the given antenna. The main part of the thesis deals with the conical horn antenna loaded with a hyperbolic dielectric lens, further the antenna with flat dielectric lens based on a transmitarray and also the integrated elliptical lens antenna. The following part of the thesis deals with the possibilities of characterizing the properties of the dielectric material of the lens.

Half-mode substrate integrated waveguide horn antenna
Černý, Matěj ; Mikulášek, Tomáš (referee) ; Láčík, Jaroslav (advisor)
This thesis is about technology of half-mode substrate integrated waveguide (HMSIW) and options proposal of horn antenna fouden on this technology. Based on gained findings HMSIW horn antenna was modeled in program CST Microwave Studio. Main attention is focused on impact geometrical parameters of antenna on it´s emitting and on reflecting ratio at the entrance of antenna. Achieved gain of main lobe was 6 dBi, which is misalignmented to required direction of angle 30°. Antenna has a working frequency 10 GHz.

Antennas for energy transmission along the car roof
Škoda, Adam ; Hebelka, Vladimír (referee) ; Vélim, Jan (advisor)
The presented master’s thesis deals with antennas transmitting energy along conductive materials. Surface waves are used for energy transmission. According to its properties, the horn antenna was chosen for the problem solution. This thesis includes the theoretical analysis of surface waves, waveguides and horn antennas. The concept of antennas includes the comparison of two different materials and two different frequencies. From the set of 8GHz antennas, the structure of two antennas where one wearing the other was chosen as the most suitable. The FoamClad material was also selected due to achievement of better parameters and properties then material CuClad. This structure was designed by two identical horn antennas where the energy between them is transmitted via slot. The suitable feeding and parallel plates were designed, and further the current structure was modified to SIW structure. The designed antenna was manufactured and its properties were measured for further comparison with simulation results. Furthermore, achieved differences between simulated and real antenna are discussed.

Planar parabolic reflector antenna
Procházka, Petr ; Pítra, Kamil (referee) ; Mikulášek, Tomáš (advisor)
This master's thesis deals with a design of a planar parabolic reflector antenna. The thesis is divided into several parts. The first section is dedicated to the theory of the parabolic antenna design and a basic introduction of the SIW technology which is used for the realization of an antenna prototype. The second chapter deals with the design of individual parts of the antenna (i. e. a primary and secondary reflector and an antenna feeder excited by a waveguide) for particular assignment. The third part is focused on modeling the designed antenna using ANSYS HFSS. Other parts of the thesis include a conversion of the proposed antenna to the SIW technology and a design of a transition between the antenna and a feeding waveguide WR15. The last part of the thesis deals with measuring of the reflection coefficient and the radiation pattern of the fabricated antenna prototype.

Experimental wireless link in frequency band 60 GHz
Lambor, Jiří ; Polívka, Milan (referee) ; Raida, Zbyněk (advisor)
This thesis is focused on a wireless link operating in 60 GHz frequency band. In this band, the attenuation due to resonance of oxygen is high. Thanks to this property, we are able to ensure a proper insulation of communication links working in two close bands. The document compares commercially available modules of offered by different manufacturers for the operation in this band. The design, the simulation and the fabrication of a antenna and its feeder are described in the next part of the thesis. The system is fabricated using a SIW technology.
