Abstract
An antenna system includes a substrate of a dielectric material. A conductive layer defines a feed slot joins a number of side slots arranged in a line forming an array. The side slots are spaced from one another and the conductive layer is disposed on the substrate. The array is configured to radiate a radiation pattern characterized by a first beam width in a first plane and a second beam width in a second plane perpendicular to the first plane, wherein the first beam width is wider than the second beam width.
