LOW SIDE LOBE LEVEL INTEGRATED CAVITY BACKED SLOT ARRAY ANTENNA SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 16940500 titled 'LOW SIDE LOBE LEVEL INTEGRATED CAVITY BACKED SLOT ARRAY ANTENNA SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an antenna system that operates in a hybrid coplanar waveguide and rectangular waveguide mode. The system includes a slot array with a conductive layer on a substrate, a defined volume waveguide between substrates, and a ground plane on another substrate. The array radiates a radiation pattern in a hybrid mode resulting from a combination of the slot array and the defined volume waveguide.

Original Abstract Submitted
An antenna system operates in a hybrid coplanar waveguide and rectangular waveguide mode. A slot array with a conductive layer is disposed on a substrate and defines a coplanar waveguide joining a number of side slots arranged in a line forming the slot array. Another substrate is spaced apart from the substrate and a ground plane is defined thereon. A defined volume waveguide is disposed between the substrates. The array is configured to radiate a radiation pattern in a hybrid mode that results from a combination of the slot array and the defined volume waveguide. The side slots may be elliptical in shape for side lobe level reduction.
