Abstract :
Tabulated, experimentally determined, scattering parameters for edge slots in the narrow wall of rectangular waveguide are given over a range of frequencies. The suggestion is that these tabulated results be used instead of graphs (extant in the literature since the 1940´s) from which it is difficult accurately to read off slot properties for comparison with theoretical techniques which may be proffered in future work by others.<>
