Abstract :
A full-wave approach has been developed to analyze a wide variety of radiating elements (including the dipole element with feed lines) printed on one side of a protruding substrate in an infinite array environment. The method is outlined, and examples of results are presented for the dipole element fed by a coplanar strip transmission line.<>
