Reflection and cross-polarization properties of grooved dielectric panels
Abstract
The cross-polarization and reflection properties of grooved dielectric windows are calculated. Measurements on two windows in the range 8-12 GHz are found to be in good agreement with the theory. It is shown that the cross-polarization is substantially reduced if the grooves on the front and back faces of the window are orthogonal to each other.
