Axially symmetric radiation patterns from flanged E-plane sectoral horn feeds
Abstract
A simple technique for obtaining identical E- and H-plane patterns from E-plane sectoral feed horn is presented. Half-power beam width and gain of the antenna are also improved considerably. Experimental results for a number of horns with flanges of various parameters are also presented. This system may find practical applications in radar and space communication systems.
