Design of 4-slot leaky wave antenna with wide apertures

A 4-slot leaky wave antenna (LWA) is presented in this paper for wireless communications. Wide aperture is used to enhance the radiation of the array. The comparison between the experimental results and the simulated results shows good agreement.
