  • Abstract
    A technique for the design of nonuniformly spaced waveguide slot arrays is proposed. The slots are in active resonance, and their position is adjusted so that the sources of the array will have the desired amplitudes and phases. The conductances of the slots depend on the desired pattern and the efficiency. Applications on Taylor and cosec 2θ patterns have shown the validity of the method
