Abstract :
The authors present a new slot design for a single-layer linearly polarized radial line slot antenna which suppresses the reflection from slots. The design procedure of the array is presented. A slot set is optimized to minimize the reflection. Then, sets are arrayed all over the aperture to realize uniform aperture distribution. The design is confirmed by measurements.<>
