Abstract.  A problem of
electromagnetic wave radiation from an array of semi infinite parallel plate
waveguides formed by metal plates with a finite thickness is considered.
Solution in analytic form is obtained by quasi-static method of conformal
mapping. The solution contains dynamical terms that take into account such
effects like radiation of high order Floquet harmonics. Numerical results are
compared with known results obtained by Viener-Hopf’s technique.
Keywords: array, parallel plate waveguide,
conformal mapping.
