A new antenna includes a rectangular slot element provided on a conducting plate and covered by a special substrate portion. The substrate portion includes stacked layers of capacitively-loaded conducting ring elements, arranged in the form of an (e.g., periodic) array in each layer. The slot antenna element is excited by a parallel-plate waveguide, which is fabricated below the conducting plate on which the slot antenna is made.
