DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF THE LONGITUDINAL SLOTS IN THE BROAD WALL OF THE RECTANGULAR WAVEGUIDE

Abstract

In this dissertation, a general purpose computer program has been developed to design N-element slotted array in the broad wall of Lhe rectangular waveguide utilizing the Elliott's design equations and Stegen's experimental curves operating at 9.375 GHz.
