We present an analysis of a slotted waveguide antenna (SWA) whose directivity has been enhanced by using metamaterial parasitic elements. We apply an adapted form of the discrete dipole approximation (DDA) as a modeling tool and verify the accuracy and versatility of this method for different configurations, including matched and shorted SWAs, and with and without parasitic elements. The results presented in this letter demonstrate the capabilities of the DDA for the fast and accurate simulation of aperture antennas composed of small radiators, and its further application for the design of complex metamaterial structures.
