Five CRLH based antenna designs with wide-range beam scanning and flexible beam forming capabilities are examined in this study through in-depth qualitative and quantitative analysis.The first three designs using CRLH leaky wave antennas (LWAs) highlight the cost-effective frequency scanning antenna configurations by combining both radiating and phase engineering elements together. Moreover, reflection-type amplifier and bi-directional amplifier are utilized to enable the beam forming functionality of CRLH LWAs. On the contrast, the following two CRLH transmission line based antenna arrays investigate the extra design freedom of structure with isolated radiating and phase engineering parts. Due to the additional design flexibility, all-passive four-quadrant beam steerable antenna array with polarization and radiation pattern controllability can be achieved. In summary, this dissertation provides a detailed description of the operating mechanism and circuit implementation of beam steering and forming antennas based on CRLH metamaterial.
