Abstract :
Planar infinite arrays, comprising longitudinal slots cut in ridged waveguides, are analysed using a Galerkin formulation for the tangential electric field at both slot interfaces, combined with the finite element method for generating the waveguide Green function used in the integral equation. Computations agree very well with previously documented results
