摘要
A high-gain high-efficiency flexible and transparent film antenna in millimeter-wave is proposed in this paper. Comb structure which can be regarded as developed from the grid array structure is employed to mitigate the loss of the feeding network caused by the lossy metal mesh. The gain of the antenna has low sensitivity to the sheet resistance, which is promising in developing large-scale and high-performance transparent antenna. A large-scale (6.72 lambda x1.05 lambda@28GHz) antenna is designed and fabricated using transparent metal mesh film with sheet resistance of 0.1 Omega/sq and a thin PET film substrate. Bending measurement shows the antenna has excellent mechanical flexibility. A peak gain of 15.92dBi, radiation efficiency of 65.1%, optical transparency of 84% and 1,000-times bending are obtained. To the best of our knowledge, it is the highest gain and radiation efficiency flexible-transparent antenna reported thus far, which provides a glass-integrated antenna solution for vehicular communication.
