Horn Antenna using Substrate Integrated Waveguide: Design of H-Plane X-Band Horn Antenna

In this paper, a ‘Substrate Integrated Waveguide H-Plane Horn Antenna’ is designed for operating specifically in X-Band i.e. from major 8.2 GHz–12.4 GHz. The antenna is designed and simulated by using the ANSYS-HFSS Software with FR-4 or typically ‘Flame Retardant-4’ as the substrate. The authors have done analysis where it obtained a bandwidth of 250 MHz with an ideal antenna size & showed out the classical behaviour as a front of a ‘perfect antenna’. All the simulations are carried out by using the Full Wave Simulator termed ANSYS-HFSS as known to be High Frequency Structure Simulator. As a virtue of it, the main implementation is shifted on the Wireless Communication Domain.
