Abstract :
Presents an integral equation and method of moments analysis of a window slot antenna. The antenna is modeled by a sheet admittance coated rectangular aperture in an infinite ground plane. It is shown that the sheet admittance coated aperture is complementary to a sheet impedance plate, which permits the window slot antenna to be analyzed with existing computer programs. Numerical results are compared with measurements for input impedance and radiation efficiency
