A Wideband Slotted Waveguide Antenna Array for Sar Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Possibilities for the extension of the operational frequency band of slotted waveguide antennas are studied. It is shown that by using both conventional longitudinal slots and subarraying techniques it is possible to reach the relative bandwidth of about 15%. This result is illustrated by the development of a novel slotted waveguide antenna for high-resolution SAR applications. The antenna operates in the X-band and forms the beam of 4◦ × 6◦ with the gain of about 30 dB.
