Abstract
This work presents a full-wave integral equation
approach specifically conceived for the analysis and design of
laterally-shielded rectangular dielectric waveguides, periodically
loaded with planar perturbations of rectangular shape.
This type of open periodic waveguide supports the propagation
of leaky-wave modes, which can be used to build leaky-wave
antennas which exhibit many desirable features for millimeter
waveband applications. The particularities of the leaky-mode
analysis theory are described in this paper, and comparisons with
other methods are presented for validation purposes. Using this
leaky-mode analysis method, a novel periodic leaky-wave antenna
is presented and designed. This novel antenna shows some important
improvements with respect to the features of previously
proposed antennas. The results of the designed radiation patterns
are validated with three-dimensional electromagnetic analysis
using commercial software.
