This is the first comprehensive treatment of slotted waveguide array antennas from an engineering perspective. It provides readers with a thorough foundation in applicable theories as well as hands-on instruction for practical analysis and design of important types of waveguide slot arrays."Slotted Waveguide Array Antennas" goes beyond some of the commonly discussed topics and ventures into areas that include: higher order mode coupling and edge effects; performance optimization in terms of bandwidth and pattern performance; special slot excitation methods; applications such as monopulse and phase steering; and manufacturing tolerances.With specific examples of waveguide array designs accompanied by detailed illustrations and antenna characteristics and many applications, this is a must-have reference for engineers involved in the design and development of slotted waveguide arrays. Additional value is provided by a thorough overview of the related literature in the field and the introductory chapters include the history of these antennas.
