Abstract :
An entire domain analysis of an omnidirectional linear array antenna, in which the radiating elements are slot doublets in a rectangular waveguide, has been developed. A numerical example is presented to verify the validity of the proposed formulation. The numerical results are in good agreement with measurement and consequently the resultant computer program represents accurate design tool for omnidirectional arrays comprising of a shunt slot pair in a rectangular waveguide
