- This paper presents an E-band automotive radar antenna based on multilayer waveguide (MLW) technology. The electromagnetic fields propagate through a low-loss air-filled coaxial transmission line created by the stacking of three separate metal sheets. The fundamental antenna element consists of a single side-fed column composed of six in-line slots.
