IEEE International Symposium on Antennas and Propagation, Illinois, United States Of America, 8 - 14 July 2012
Longitudinal slots and coupling between slots placed on the broad wall of a cylindrical substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) are modeled and characterized in order to design a slotted cylindrical SIW array. Characteristics of slot on the SIW bended on a cylindrical surface and effects of radius of curvature to the slot and mutual coupling characteristics are investigated at K band using FEM simulator.
