This paper considers two different mounting options for a Linear Tapered Slot Antenna (LTSA). Five different antenna designs, utilizing five different slot-line lengths, were tested. The primary purpose of the test was to explore the possibility of using this type of antenna as a radar-receiving structure for possible applications in guided, mini-projectiles. The main emphasis of the testing was to demonstrate the effects of mounting the antennas on a conducting surface.
