Abstract :
The influence of the waveguide aperture size on the admittance variation with scan angle of a waveguide phased array is presented. It is shown that certain size waveguide apertures can cause zero radiation directions. Design criteria which yield the maximum waveguide size to minimize or eliminate this condition are derived.
