A Theoretical Study of Dielectric-Filled Edge-Slot Antennas.

Abstract

A theory has been developed for the dielectric filled edge slot (DFES) antennas. It clearly brings out the effects of various parameters on the performance of the antenna, and can be used for the design of such antennas under a variety of conditions. In addition to the theory of DFES antennas, the following accomplishments were realized: (a) the equivalent circuit of DFES antennas and (b) the equivalent parameters for the tuning posts in a radial waveguide. The techniques used and the results obtained may be applied to other antennas, e.g., to probe-fed patch antennas tuned by metallic posts. (Author)
