Abstract :
In this paper a new parallel plate antenna is presented. The antenna operates in the DBS band. As a difference to traditional designs a TENO has been created inside the parallel plate waveguide. The field propagating inside is coupled through microstrip lines to the radiating patches. A 15deg tilted radiation pattern is desired. A prototype has been manufactured, and the results are presented
