In this paper, a novel multilayered substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) composite right/left-handed (CRLH) structure is proposed to design beam scanning antenna for wideband broadside radiation. The unit cell of the SIW-CRLH structure is formed by spiral interdigital fingers etched on the upper ground of SIW, and a parasitic patch beneath the slot, has a continuous change of phase constant from negative to positive value within its passband. The proposed beam scanning antenna, which consists of consists of 15 identical elementary cells of the SIW-CRLH, is simulated, fabricated and measured. According to the measured results, the proposed antenna not only realizes a continuous main beam scanning from backward –78° to forward +80° within the operating frequency range from 8.25 to 12.2 GHz, but also obtains the measured broadside gain of 11.5 dB with variation of 1.0 dB over the frequency range of 8.8–9.25 GHz (4.99 %). Besides, compared with the same works in the references, this one has the most wonderful performance.
