Abstract
The 16-element phased-array antenna has been developed for the EBWH/CD experiments. The 2-D k-spectra could be controlled. The heat load and stress were analyzed to be moderate in the 200kW CW operation. The symmetrically 2-D narrow-field distributions were excited by the developed antenna, indicating its good applicability to the EBWH/CD experiments.
