Theory and Experiment of the Cylindrical Edge-Slot Antenna with Coaxial Line Feed

동축선로로 급전된 원통형 에지-슬롯 안테나의 이론 및 실험

A theoretical method has been considered for the analysis of a cylindrical edge-slot antenna which belongs to a class of circumferential slot antennas that are suitable for conformal mounting on conducting bodies of revolution. A coupled integral equation is formulated for unknown magnetic currents of both the coaxial aperture and the edge slot, and solved by the moment method. Theoretical values for reflection coefficient obtained based upon the method are compared with our experimental values and other author's results available. There arre good agreement between them.
