Abstract

A high gain planar antenna has been investigated, using an optimised partially reflecting surface (PRS) placed in front of a waveguide aperture in a ground plane. The antenna performance is initially related to the reflection characteristics of the PRS array following an approximate analysis. The array geometry is optimised using an analytical formula. The optimisation results are verified using a full wave model taking into account the edge effects. The array size for maximum antenna efficiency has also been investigated.
