Abstract
A basic theory of slots in rectangular wave‐guides is given. The analogy with a transmission line is developed and established, and detailed formulae for the reflection and transmission coefficients and for the ``voltage amplitude'' in the slot generated by a given incident wave are given. While the complete expressions for these quantities are quite complicated and involve the summation of infinite series, certain parts of the expressions are comparatively simple. In particular, the ``resistance'' or ``conductance'' of slots which are equivalent to series or shunt elements in a transmission line are given by fairly simple closed expressions. Guide‐to‐guide coupling by slots and slot arrays are also considered. A more detailed summary of the main results of the paper is given in Section 1.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
