TERAHERTZ BAND BEAMFORMING ANTENNA SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240022000 titled 'TERAHERTZ BAND BEAMFORMING ANTENNA SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The disclosed patent application describes a terahertz band beamforming antenna system. The system consists of a metal waveguide top portion and a metal waveguide bottom portion, which are coupled together. The antenna portion, including a feed transmission line and a radiation antenna, is positioned at the metal waveguide bottom portion. The metal waveguide top portion and the metal waveguide bottom portion may have radiation openings and can be coupled to seal the top surface, bottom surface, and both side surfaces of the antenna portion.
