  • Abstract
    The mutual admittance matrix is computed for a planar phased array of thin slots with assumed single-mode cosinusoidal aperture electric field. The array is of infinite extent in the E-plane and of finite extent in the H-plane. The H-plane excitation is arbitrary and the array is phase scanned in the E-plane. Resultant active row-port admittances and H-plane aperture distribution are in agreement with large strictly finite array calculations and with a Floquet mode infinite array model, for the example case of uniform H-plane excitation
