This paper presents an extension of the so‐called transmission line model method (TLMM) applied to shaped slot dielectric‐filled waveguide antennas (SDFWAs), especially the L‐shaped slot. This radiating longitudinal slot is fed by a transversal slot used as a coupling element; their association is shaped like the letter L. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
