Abstract :
This paper uses the MOM to design longitudinal slotted-waveguide array (LSWA) with the entire-domain trigonometric functions as basis and test functions. A software with good convergence performance was developed. The aperture distribution and reflection coefficient of each waveguide can be well controlled. This paper also provides a design method for engineering application so as to reduce the computational time.
