SANTACRUZ, Fabricio; CABRERA, Fausto; RIBADENEIRA, Jefferson  and  VELOZ, Diego. Power Network for Millimeter Band Antenna Arrays Using SIW Technology. Maskay [online]. 2019, vol.9, n.1, pp.9-14. ISSN 1390-6712.  https://doi.org/10.24133/maskay.v9i1.1062.

The research proposes to design a power supply network in SIW technology (Substrate Integrated Waveguide) for antenna arrays in millimeter bands. This network uses as base a T-type power splitter with SIW technology. The network is useful for networks of antennas with 5G technology. This T-type power splitter has as its main characteristic the symmetry in its output ports, that is, the wavelengths of the two output branches remain the same with reference to the input port. The division of voltage is achieved through a central partition in the T-type power splitter. Based on the results the benefits of the power supply network are validated, with SIW technology get the same behavior in the electric field distribution as in a normal waveguide. Perhaps, the power supply network reduces the weight and losses in the conductor that are presented in the traditional waveguides.
