Opis

This is the first comprehensive treatment of slotted waveguide array antennas from an engineering perspective. It provides readers with a thorough foundation in applicable theories as well as hands-on instruction for practical analysis and design of important types of waveguide slot arrays.

Slotted Waveguide Array Antennas goes beyond some of the commonly discussed topics and ventures into areas that include: higher order mode coupling and edge effects; performance optimization in terms of bandwidth and pattern performance; special slot excitation methods; applications such as monopulse and phase steering; and manufacturing tolerances.

With specific examples of waveguide array designs accompanied by detailed illustrations and antenna characteristics and many applications, this is a must-have reference for engineers involved in the design and development of slotted waveguide arrays. Additional value is provided by a thorough overview of the related literature in the field and the introductory chapters include the history of these antennas.
