Abstract :
A surface-patch moment method approach is used to examine the electric field distribution in longitudinal slots that have small offsets from the host rectangular waveguide centreline. It is shown that the phase of the transverse electric field in the slot may display a large variation across the slot narrow dimension in such instances.
