title = "Design of Efficient and High Gain Sub-THz Series-Fed Antenna Array for THz Communication",
abstract = "This paper presents a cost-effective, high-performance series-fed 5-element antenna array for terahertz (THz) communications. Additional parasitic patches are etched on the top conducting surface, which enhances co-polarized currents, resulting in an increase in gain from 13.15 dBi to 16.50 dBi and aperture efficiency from 9.18\% to 20.47\% with the same antenna aperture size. The proposed design achieves a peak realized gain of around 16.50 dBi with minimal fluctuation (less than 0.90 dB) and a peak radiation efficiency of 92.4\% at 106.50 GHz, operating within the sub-THz band (95-110 GHz). The antenna geometric design is obtained by the SADEA-I algorithm, a machine-learning-assisted global optimization technique for antenna design.",
