In this paper we present solution of the electrodynamic problem of excitation a phased array of strip vibrators with horizontal polarization near of conducting cylindrical surface. The antenna array is excited by generators with a given amplitude-phase distribution by the ring and equal linear phase shift distribution along the axis of cylinder. Current distribution on the vibrator and radiationpattern radiators array defined by the method of integral equations.
The results can be used in the development of phased antenna arrays near of conducting cylindrical surface and the creation of radar and communication systems with all-round visibility of space for different purposes.
