Abstract: To address the issues of narrow gain bandwidth and severe element coupling faced by traditional Fabry-Perot resonant antennas in phased-array feed systems, this paper proposes a decoupling design method based on a highly optimized resonant mode height. By analyzing the electric field distributions and coupling mechanisms under multi-feed conditions, an improved resonator height calculation formula suitable for phased-array feeds was derived, achieving mutual suppression of energy between reflected wave coupling and inter-element coupling. A 2 × 2 microstrip antenna array is used as the feed source. Combined with a multilayer positive phase gradient partially reflective surface, a Fabry-Perot antenna prototype operating at 28 GHz was designed and fabricated. Simulated and experimental results demonstrate that compared to conventional designs, this antenna achieves a maximum gain at 28 GHz, increased from 21.80 dBi to 23.15 dBi, with the 3-dB gain bandwidth expanded from 1350 MHz to 1730 MHz. This study provides an effective approach for achieving a broadband high-gain design in phased-array fed Fabry-Perot resonant antennas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
