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.
