The subject of this paper is the study of the radiation properties of a one-dimensional periodic strip grating leaky-wave antenna when excited by a practical feed. The antenna structure, known as the dielectric-inset waveguide leaky-wave antenna has been proposed because of its mechanical simplicity...
