ABSTRACT:
A cavity-backed slot array antenna is provided which offers wide frequency bandwidth in a conformal structure and further offers forward horizon coverage and wide angle beam scanning. The slot array antenna has a plurality of cavity-backed slot arrays. Each array contains a plurality of conductive cavities and radiating slots. The conductive cavities have varying size length and width in accordance with a log-periodic scale and, some conductive cavities have a maximum constant width. The slots are preferably formed in a folded configuration extending along a substantial portion of the width of the conductive cavity and further extend along a portion of the length of the conductive cavity one or more times. For a conductive cavity at maximum width, the corresponding slots are further extended in the effective overall length so as to further extend the frequency bandwidth, while maintaining a compact antenna structure.
