Abstract :
We developed a broadband and low return loss slotted waveguide array antenna by using partially parallel feeding in the millimeter-wave band. We designed asymmetrical both feeding circuit and array design for aperture Taylor distribution. The feasibility of the proposed antenna is confirmed by experiments.
