Abstract
This paper presents a microstrip fed Yagi-Uda slot array antenna as a new method of surface wave excitation in a dielectric slab. Construction of the antenna is compatible with planar fabrication technology. Measurements of input return loss, front-to-back ratio, and surface wave power distribution are presented.
