Abstract :
A corrugated elliptical horn suitable for space application has been designed and experimentally investigated. It is shown that this horn gives an elliptical far-field power pattern which is almost independent of the polarisation direction. The crosspolarisation behaviour is similar to that of corrugated horns of circular cross-section.
