Longitudinal Shunt Slot Characteristics

Abstract

Experimental results of measurements of narrow longitudinal shunt slots at X-band are presented. Correlation between the phase of the admittance and the phase of the radiated field of a slot has been established analytically and substantiated by measurements. The resonant conductance of these slots has been determined both as a function of their displacement from the waveguide center-line and as a function of frequency for a particular displacement. Good correlation has been found between these results and Stevenson's expression for a longitudinal shunt slot. Curves of resonant length as a function of displacement at a particular frequency and as a function of frequency for a particular displacement were determined. Radiation patterns as a function of slot displacement have been measured and studied.
