Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The possibility of developing an antenna system consisting of transmit and receive arrays and being able to work simultaneously in full duplex mode at the same frequency is a very attractive task. This could only be achieved if the isolation between the transmit and receive arrays is sufficiently high not to cause a parasitic oscillation which will ruin the proper operation of a transponder system to which the arrays will be connected. Specifically, in this paper the operation of two peripheral open waveguide arrays placed on a cylindrical surface and being isolated with a radial line operating as a space …
