Abstract :
We compute the mutual coupling between transverse slots in cylindrical structures. The coupling is included in the slot antenna analysis and the waveguide scattering parameters are determined. Results agree well with measured S parameters. A proposed SAR antenna structure, that cannot be analyzed with the conventional infinite ground plane couplings is used as an example of possible applications of this work.
