Abstract :
In previous articles, an easy way to analyse a slot array fed through a radial line was presented. The analysis was based on a circuit approach where circuit parameters have been estimated using the first propagation mode in the radial line and the far field theory. Here we study the design of a particular application for circularly polarised broadside antenna. The design defines the length, position and orientation of the slots in the antenna surface. The final analysis of the antenna gives a good behaviour in field diagrams and gain.
