| Abstract | A Computer Automated Design method based on the generalized-scattering matrix and spherical wave expansion analysis is used to configure a linearly polarized 24-element slotted array antenna at Ku band. The mutual coupling effects between slots have been considered in the proposed methodology. Therefore, it is possible to remove the typical compensation step in the design process. The computing costs of the whole antenna optimization process is significantly reduced using the proposed method compared to the commercial full-wave simulation tools. An antenna prototype has been manufactured in order to experimentally validate the antenna performance. A realized gain and efficiency values of 15.9 dB and 97% have been measured at the design frequency (17 GHz), respectively. |
