Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a 5G or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate than a 4G system, such as LTE. Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a device and a method. To this end, an antenna unit may comprise a dielectric substrate, a dielectric cover on the dielectric substrate, and a slot antenna array formed in a metal layer arranged on or in the dielectric substrate. The slot antenna array may be configured to generate a traveling wave which propagates in the dielectric substrate and the dielectric cover, and may have at least two groups (first and second groups) of slot elements. Each slot element of the second group may be shorter than any slot element of the first group, and slots of the first and second groups may be arranged to be opposite to each other so as to make pairs of slot elements.

Abstract: An antenna device is provided. The antenna device includes a reflector having a profile of a parabolic shape in a first cross-section cut parallel to a first direction and a profile of a hyperbolic shape in a second cross-section, the second cross-section being cut perpendicular to the first direction and crossing the first cross-section at a right angle and a radiating structure having at least one phased antenna array adapted to illuminate at least part of the reflector and to scan a beam. The edges of the profile of the parabolic shape of the first cross-section are formed to be directed toward the radiating structure. The edges of the profile of the hyperbolic shape of the reflector are formed to be directed away from the radiating structure. The antenna device may be diversified depending on various embodiments.
