Abstract(in English) This paper presents a microstrip antenna (MSA) array on a broad wall of a rectangular waveguide for 45-degree inclined linear polarization. A two-element MSA array connected by a microstrip line at the corners on a dielectric substrate, which is fed by an inclined slot on the broad wall of the rectangular waveguide, is used as a sub array of the proposed array for grating lobe suppression due to the slot array arranged at a spacing of one guided wavelength. In this paper, a basic configuration of the novel planar array for 45-degree linear polarization on a broad wall of the rectangular waveguide is described. Then, a six-element MSA array fed by three inclined slots on the broad wall with standing-wave excitation is designed and fabricated. It is revealed that good radiation pattern with suppressed grating lobes below ?10 dB is confirmed by simulation with ANSYS HFSS and measurement.
