We calculate the standing wave functions for pie-shaped wedge microstrip antennas of various wedge angles ϕ0. We then calculate the emission distributions from the uniform Josephson current and from the excitation of a cavity mode generated from the stand wave functions. For a narrow dieter's pie slice, quantitative fits to the experimental data on a Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ narrow isosceles triangular mesa are shown.
