Abstract:
A radar system includes a plurality of radiating elements configured to radiate electromagnetic energy and a plurality of feed waveguides defining a common plane and configured to guide electromagnetic energy to the plurality of radiating elements. The radar system also includes a plurality of waveguides arranged as a dividing network configured to split the electromagnetic energy from the source among the plurality of feed waveguides, such that each feed waveguide receives a respective portion of the electromagnetic energy. Additionally, the dividing network is configured to adjust a phase of the electromagnetic energy received by each waveguide. The splitting and adjusting of the dividing network may be based on differences in height and/or width between the waveguides of the dividing network and the feed waveguides. At least a portion of the dividing network is located in a plane other than the common plane of the feed waveguides.

Claim (Index 1):
A radar system comprising:\n a plurality of feed waveguides, wherein each feed waveguide is configured to guide electromagnetic energy to at least one of a plurality of destinations such that each destination corresponds to one of the plurality of feed waveguides, wherein each feed waveguide has a height and width dimension in common with each other feed waveguide, and wherein the plurality of feed waveguides is arranged such that centers of the heights of the feed waveguides are located in a common plane; and a plurality of dividing waveguides configured to:\n receive electromagnetic energy from a source, \n split the electromagnetic energy from the source among the plurality of feed waveguides, such that each feed waveguide receives a respective portions of the electromagnetic energy from the source, and \n wherein the splitting is based in part on differences in height and/or width between the dividing waveguides and the feed waveguides.
