  • Abstract
    The IDG (inset dielectric guide) has proved to be an excellent antenna medium featuring pure polarization, broadband matching, and high efficiency. Antenna characteristics, however, are affected by the feeding system. An effective feed arrangement suitable for application to multiple arrays in IDG is presented.<>
