The problem of side lobe suppression (SLS) in printed antenna arrays has been investigated in the paper. Influence of several factors that make difficult design and realization of antenna arrays with relatively high SLS has been analyzed. We introduced a new type of printed antenna array with symmetrical pentagonal dipoles and symmetrical tapered feed network with Chebyshev distribution enabling SLS better than 34 dB in E-plane. Agreement between simulated and measured results is very good. The antenna is suitable for integration with other microwave circuits. Presented antenna is low cost and very simple for realization.

Side Lobe Suppression

The paper defines the border between the far and near field zone of printed antenna arrays. The conventional definition has a limited application in side lobe suppression measurements, especially in the case of high side lobe suppression. The paper particularly details the printed antenna array with 8 radiation elements. Its symmetrical tapered feed network with Chebyshev distribution enables side lobe suppression greater than -44 dB in the E-plane. In addition, the influence of tolerances in the standard photolithographic process has been investigated. The expected tolerances in the standard photolithographic process have been assumed with moderate precision in order to estimate the side lobe suppression degradation due to amplitude and phase deviations, as well as deviations to optimized values in radiating element positioning.

Side Lobe Suppression

The paper discusses the problem of side lobe suppression in the radiation pattern of printed antenna arrays with different 3D reflector surfaces. The antenna array of eight symmetrical pentagonal dipoles with corner reflectors of various angles is examined. All investigated antenna arrays are fed by the same feeding network of impedance transformers enabling necessary amplitude distribution. Considering the different reflector surfaces, the influence of parasitic radiation from feeding network on side lobe suppression is studied to prevent the reception of unwanted noise and to increase a gain.
