| Summary: | This article explores the Groove Gap Waveguide (GGW) technology and its application in the 94GHz band through an antenna array. An overview of the Gap Waveguide technology and its variants is given, establishing a theoretical framework for the design and simulation of a 2x2 element slot antenna using CST software. Simulation results show a maximum gain of 12.2dBi and an operating bandwidth of 17.2% in the band of interest. These results suggest that GGW technology has significant potential for applications in next generation sixth generation (6G) wireless communication system scenarios, where high data rates and reliability are required in networks operating in the millimetre wave (mmWave) band. |
