This study presents a new design of a feed antenna typically a horn destined to high-speed wireless communications at 60GHz. This broadband horn antenna is designed with a ceramic material (εr=9.8, tanδ=5e-4) using CST Microwave Studio software. Its bandwidth is [57~66] GHz and its directivity is 13.9dBi.
