Abstract
The radiation characteristics of an axial slot on a circular conducting cylinder with reflector wings are investigated. Integral equations for both TM and TE cases are derived using Green's SECOND identity. The method of moments is then employed to obtain a numerical solution for the integral equations. Comparison with the published data of slot on a circular cylinder and slotted cylinder in a ground plane showed an excellent agreement. Several radiation patterns corresponding to new geometries of the antenna are then presented.
