A novel circular polarized dielectric antenna array (DRA) for millimeter-wave applications at 30 GHz is presented in this paper. The unit element array is a flower-shaped DRA fed with a cross slot. To obtain circular polarization, a sequential network combined with the cross slots is used to feed the 2×2 array. The prototype of the proposed antenna array is fabricated and measured to obtain a wide resonance bandwidth from 27 GHz to 38 GHz frequency band. Furthermore, this left-hand polarized antenna array has achieved a peak gain of 9.5 dBi with 3-dB axial ratio at 30 GHz. The proposed DRA array with wideband resonance and gain bandwidth has the potential to be used for millimeter-wave wireless communications at the 30 GHz band.

Starburst activity is often heavily obscured by dust. To see through the dust and measure the full extent, power and dynamics of the starburst, we are surveying hydrogen radio recombination lines (RRLs) from famous nearby starburst galaxies. Exploiting the improved sensitivity and dynamic range of aperture synthesis arrays such as the VLA and the AT and millimeter-wave telescopes such as SEST and the IRAM-30m telescope, we have searched for RRLs in about 25 starburst galaxies. RRLs have been detected in 14 galaxies. The observations were made variously at 1.4, 4.9, 8.4, 86, 135 and 232 GHz (Anantharamaiah et al 1993, Zhao et al 1996, 1997, Phookun et al 1997). Table 1 summarizes the observations. In all the cases the detected line originates in the nuclear starburst region and the emission region is resolved with a beam of 1–3″.

Abstract A dual band monopole antenna with triangle stubs operated at 28/38 GHz applications is introduced. The introduced dual band antenna is used for next 5G applications. The introduced antenna is designed on a Rogers RT 4003 with height h = 0.203 mm, dielectric constant ɛr = 3.55 and over dimensions of 12×12×0.237 mm3. The simulated results show that the presented design has two bands, the first one is from 25.9 to 30.4 GHz and the second is from 36.4 to 40.2 GHz with peak gain of 4.54 dB, 4.21 dB in the first and second frequencies respectively. The simulated radiation efficiency for the first and second frequencies is 94% and 96.6%, respectively. There are some small discrepancies between simulated and measured findings due to the fabrication and measurement equipment.
