A planar 32×32-slot array antenna at 60 GHz including microstrip-ridge gap waveguide distribution network is analyzed using modular approach. This approach gives a fast estimation of the return loss of a large array including the corporate distribution network, and allows for an improvement of the return loss by tuning the length of the branches of the power dividers in the corporate network.
