Abstract :
An analysis model is proposed to evaluate the slot coupling in a radial line slot antenna. The effects of the waveguide thickness, the permittivity of the dielectric, and the slot length on slot coupling are evaluated. The theoretical results effectively express the effects of the design parameters upon the coupling factor and the slow wave factor.<>
