Abstract :
The excitation mechanism of an untilted slot in the narrow wall of a rectangular waveguide by a suspended slotline has been described. Power radiated by this slot as a function of the slot width of the suspended slotline has been measured. This excitation mechanism appears promising for microwave integrated circuit antennas.<>
