Abstract
With a view to improving the gain of the slot antenna on a dielectric substrate operating in the millimeter and submillimeter wave regions, slot array antennas with parasitic elements for 94 and 700 GHz have be en designed and fabricated. The power gains and the receiving patterns of the antennas have been experimentally derived and compared with th eoretical results. It is found that the experimental values of the fab ricated six-slot antennas agree well with the theoretical ones, and th e gain is improved by about 6 dB over that for the single slot.
