Abstract :
Experimental results of a printed linear array using a low loss insular dielectric waveguide feed are presented. The array consists of etched dipoles excited by the magnetic field of the feed waveguide. Radiation patterns and plots of the field distributions in the feed waveguide are given, which are in good agreement with the simple theory used.
