Abstract
A novel two-dimensional beam-scanning microstrip leaky-wave antenna (MLWA) is presented. The proposed antenna consists of two half-width MLWA with a phase-shifter. This new type of MLWA has the advantages of two-dimensional beam-scanning and suppressing back lobes. This reduced size MLWA is useful in automotive radar systems and air traffic control.
