Abstract
It is shown that a slotted rectangular waveguide acting as a leaky wave feeder in a cylindrical parabolic focal line radiates two symmetric beams. The radiation angle may be controlled both in a fast and a slow fashion. The guide´s width acts as the fast control and the slot´s width is the fine tuning. This radiating structure may be used as a flexible TV double satellite receiver
