Fenn, A. J., Thiele, G. A., Munk, B. A.
A technique is presented for determining the aperture reflection coefficients for E-plane and H-plane scanned finite planar phased antenna arrays. The array elements are rectangular waveguide-fed...
This report presents a simple plane wave expansion for the mutual impedance between two parallel sinusoidal dipoles. Complex plane wave reflection coefficients are then introduced to account for a...
Reflection from N-Layer Dipole Array. (2005)
Arrays of loaded (or unloaded) dipoles have found widespread applications as space filters. They can, when properly designed, provide a unity reflection coefficent at one frequency and a smaller than...
Plane Wave Expansion for Arrays of Dipoles or Slots in Presence of Dielectric Slabs. (2002)
Munk,B. A., Fulton,R. D., Luebbers,R. J.
The report presents the admittance properties of slot arrays in the presence of dielectric layers. The work relates to the design of metallic radomes. The report discusses the admittance properties...
Transmission through a Bi-Planar Slot Array Sandwiched between Three Dielectric Layers. (2002)
This report considers transmission through two metallic surfaces provided with small resonant slots where the two screens are separated by a dielectric slab of relative dielectric constant 2. They ar...
A Cavity-Type Broadband Antenna with a Steerable Cardioid Pattern. (2002)
This report describes a new vertically polarized cavity-type antenna with a cardioid pattern steerable in the horizontal plane. The front-to-back ratio is better than 15 dB over a 25% bandwidth and...
Annular Slots with Cardioid-Type Patterns. (2002)
This report considers the radiation pattern from one or more concentric circular loops. The current on each loop is comprised of components of the form sin n(phi). It is shown how directive patterns...
A Compact Satcom Antenna for X- and Q-Band. (1998)
Lin,S. J., Henderson,L., Miller,K., Munk,B. A.
This report describes the development of a Satcom antenna for X- (7.25-7.75 GHz) and Q-band (43-46 GHz). The Q-band antenna is comprised of a dichroic parabolic dish of tripoles making it reflective...
