  • Abstract
    This paper describes the design, manufacturing and testing of an X-band slotted waveguide array for radar applications. The array structure is very light and flat. The design has been performed using a 3D electromagnetic solver and synthesizing separately the slot array and the corporate feed. The measured electrical performance shows the goodness of the electrical and mechanical antenna design.
