Abstract :
Recent advance in active integrated microstrip leaky-mode array is presented. Both theory and experiment for assessing the various types of leaky mode arrays agree very well in prediction of the pencil-beam radiation characteristics and the frequency scanning directions. One successful example of applying the leaky-mode array in a microwave vision system is reported
