Abstract :
In this paper, the monopulse behavior in planar antennas with parallel plate feeding has been studied and applied in two different designs. Knowing the field structure in the parallel plate waveguide for different inputs number is important for an appropriate dimensioning of the coupling elements (microstrip coupling lines) that depends on the desired radiation patterns
