摘要

BROADBAND CONTINUOUSLY SHARED NOTCH PHASED-ARRAY RADIATING ELEMENT WITH CONTROLLED RETURN LOSS CONTOUR An array of flared notch radiating elements respectively a first planar metallic conductor having a first contoured edge extending from a feed line, a second planar metallic conductor co-planar with the first planar metallic conductor and having a second contoured edge adjacent the first contoured edge and extending from the feed line. The contoured edges diverge from each other with distance from the feed line and are shaped to provide a high-pass Tchebyscheff-like reflection coefficient versus frequency characteristic.
