J. Takada et al., METHOD OF MOMENTS ANALYSIS OF A SMALL APERTURE RADIAL LINE SLOT ANTENNA USING THE RECTANGULAR CAVITY GREENS-FUNCTION, IEE proceedings. Microwaves, antennas and propagation, 144(6), 1997, pp. 498-500
An efficient and accurate numerical analysis for a small aperture radi
al line slot antenna is proposed. A shorted radial line is modelled by
a rectangular cavity with short pins arranged circularly in the metho
d of moments analysis. It is advantageous from the viewpoint of comput
ation cost, since no numerical integration is required in the estimati
on of matrix elements. The predicted return loss agree well with the m
easured one.
