Abstract:Conformal antennas have been widely used in many fields due to their advantages of low air resistance and better visual appearance. In this paper, an arced conformal leaky-wave antenna (LWA) for a designable directional beam is proposed. The antenna is achieved based on a substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW). On the upper surface, a series of non-uniform transverse slots are etched. In order to guide the design of the antenna, as another key contribution of this work, a theoretical model for the traveling-wave… Show more
