Abstract
A full wave method for the analysis of typical blocks forming a waveguide planar slot array is proposed. The method provides both the generalized scattering matrix of each block and the electric field over the radiating slots, thus making it suitable for CAD applications. Internal and external higher-order mode coupling, conductor thickness and dielectric covers are included in the model, based on a rigorous mathematical formulation with no restrictions on slot width.
