Study of Influence of Crossed Slot Geometry on Main Beam Direction

Abstract

This paper is devoted to investigate dependence of the radiation pattern on crossed slot antenna geometry. The considered slot, fed by a coplanar waveguide, consists of two rectangular parts positioned at angle α to each other. This study has a primary aim to reveal the optimal angle α to provide the maximum gain of considered antenna as well as of its linear arrays. The simulated radiation properties are discussed in the paper.
