  ABSTRACT: The development of space telecommunications in recent years has necessitated the design and the realization of compact, high-performance equipment operating at increasingly high frequencies. The use of high-precision radars for surveillance, detection and mobile communication systems orients research toward the antennas to electronic sweep. In this article, we present a microstrip leaky-wave antenna with periodic patches. Its design is based on an integral formulation solved by software using HFSS finite elements. A parametric study of this antenna is validated by simulations and compared with other results found in the literature. Analysis of the antenna’s radiation parameters shows that the main beam direction and levels of minor’s lobes can be controlled from these geometrical parameters. The interest of this study is to meet the requirements of antennas dedicated telecommunications systems.
