摘要

Fabry-Perot (FP) antennas have characteristics of planar structures combined with high gain, and they have been widely used in wireless communications. With the progress of ongoing research, FP antennas have achieved various capabili-ties, but many of them are still under development, such as low-profile, wideband, circular polarization, multi-band, low-radar cross section (RCS) and reconfigurable features. This paper dis-cusses the theoretical analysis methods and research progress of FP antennas, and explains the realization methods of differ-ent features of FP antennas. In order to indicate different techno-logies for realizing various capabilities, the key technologies and features of some of the latest designs are described. Finally, the research situation and prospects of FP antennas are summar-ized to guide their research directions in the future.
