    Abstract: Disclosed is a balun circuit using defected ground structure. The balun circuit using a defected ground structure includes: a substrate; a ground surface formed on one surface of the substrate, the ground surface being formed with defect structure in a previously set shape; and two transmission lines formed on the other surface of the substrate opposing the ground surface, and separated from each other, and the defect structure of the ground surface is configured to have open circuit impedance characteristics, and one of the two transmission lines is grounded. An even mode signal is removed by using the defect ground structure having the open circuit impedance characteristics, and termination of total reflection characteristics is performed by using the grounding of one of the transmission lines. Accordingly, a balun circuit can be obtained which is small in size, has little loss at high frequency, and shows little change in characteristics due to the process error.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a dielectric resonator array antenna including one or more series-feed type array elements installed to be arranged in parallel in a multilayer substrate, wherein first high frequency signals having the same or different phases or time delays are adjusted to be applied to the respective series-feed type array elements and respective radiated 1D array beams are individually used or combined to adjust beamforming of 2D array beams. Also, since the series-feed type array element is configured by connecting a plurality of dielectric resonator antennas in series, it can be easily and simply fed in series through coupling generated by the intervals between the feeding lines of the pertinent feeding unit of the plurality of dielectric resonator antennas connected in series. In addition, the broadband characteristics can be obtained by using the plurality of dielectric resonator antennas, whereby the overall antenna performance can be enhanced.
