A longitudinally-slotted ridge waveguide antenna array with a compact transverse dimension is presented. To broaden the bandwidth of the array, it is separated into two subarrays fed by a novel compact convex waveguide divider. A 16-element uniform linear array at X-band was fabricated and measured to verify the validity of the design. The measured bandwidth of S11les-15 dB is 14.9% and the

Waveguide Slot Array 20x20 The aim of this application note is presenting efficient simulation of antenna array using WIPL-D Software. WIPL-D Pro, full wave ïD EM Method-of-Moments (MoM) based solver, will be used both for modelling and simulating the antenna array. The results of interest will be near field distribution and radiation pattern. walls of a waveguide forming an array with the slots acting as individual radiating elements. The resonant slot array employs near half-wavelength long resonant slots as individual radiators. The array elements are excited in the standing wave mode, which is formed by a short circuit end of the waveguide.

DUAL POLARIZED SLOTTED WAVEGUIDE ARRAY ANTENNA Doğan, Doğanay M.Sc. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Özlem Aydın Çivi February 2011, 88 pages An X band dual polarized slotted waveguide antenna array is designed with very high polarization purity for both horizontal and vertical polarizations.

The basic part of the array is a subarray comprising an HP and a VP slotted waveguide single-polarization linear array. Each single-polarization linear array with 16 uniformly radiating elements is divided into four groups and fed by a 4-way waveguide power divider to broaden the bandwidth. Many techniques have been discussed in the literature to enhance the bandwidth of traditional slotted waveguide array antenna. As it has been discussed in the previous section, the use of thin wall waveguides, reduced cross sectional waveguide, wide slots, and modified slot shapes are the reported techniques to improve the bandwidth. A longitudinally-slotted ridge waveguide antenna array with a compact transverse dimension is presented. To broaden the bandwidth of the array, it is separated into two subarrays fed by a novel compact convex waveguide divider.

A new kind of wideband waveguide slot array for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is presented. Elliptical slots are first used for designing the waveguide slot antenna. An eight-element waveguide slot array operating at X-band is designed and measured. Predicted results are compared with measured data and good agreement is reported.
