摘要
A theoretical study is made of the aperture field distributions, the far-field amplitude patterns, and the mutual coupling characteristics of several long leaky-wave slot antennas cut on the broadwall of a rectangular waveguide mounted in an infinite ground plane. Straight long slots have high inner sidelobes in the far field amplitude patterns, which reduces their utility as high-performance antennas. To reduce these sidelobes, a long slot may be meandered from waveguide centerline to sidewall and back to centerline in such a way to produce the desired radiation patterns. Calculated results for antennas of several meander patterns are presented and discussed.
