摘要

A new kind of THz hybrid metal-plasma Yagi antenna has been proposed on the basis of plasma antenna to meet the requirements of good directivity and high gain, in which reflection oscillator is replaced by right-angle reflector. The structure is designed by the theory of plasma antenna and Yagi antenna, and the parameters are preliminarily determined. Then electromagnetic simulation is carried out to examine the performance parameters of the Yagi antenna, such as the return loss, gain, voltage standing wave ratio and radiation pattern, in which the condition of different distances between the vertex of angle reflector and dipole is considered. Contrasted with the antennas without angle reflector, the structure proposed in this article has much higher gain and better front-to-rear ratio.
