dc.description.abstractIn this thesis the possibility of using radial line slot array (RLSA) antennas to provide low profile isoflux radiation patterns suitable for use as circularly-polarized tracking, telemetry & command (TT&C) antennas on low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites is investigated. The RLSA antenna elements are slot pairs located on concentric circles on the top plate of a radial waveguide. Conventional synthesis techniques cannot be used due to the fact that the RLSA antenna is a non-uniformly spaced array, the elements do not all have the same orientation, and the excitation amplitudes and phases are linked to the actual physical location of a particular slot pair. A technique is therefore developed for synthesizing such an RLSA antenna. Keywords: Antennas, Radial Line Slot Antennas, Isoflux Radiation Patterns
