Summary:
The resonance analysis of the leaky-wave antenna with the microstrip feeding has been presented in this paper. Owing to an open-end structure of the leaky-wave antenna, we analyze the antenna by using the cavity-mode technique. Two conventional leaky-wave antennas with two different lengths, defined by the short and long cases, are shown to examine their radiation mechanism and frequency characteristics. Without using commercial EM simulation tools, the location of the resonance modes of the leaky-wave antenna can be predicted.
