The radiation characteristics of a cavity-backed four-slot antenna array are investigated in this paper. By employing cavity-backed slots antenna element, the antenna array has wide bandwidth and wide beam width. The feeding network of the antenna array mainly consists of shielded microstrip line. Both simulated and measured results of the antenna return loss and radiation patterns are presented. The measured VSWR
