Abstract
The paper describes the prediction and measurement of the cross-polar radiation from corrugated feeds. The influence of the flange, periodicity of the corrugations and corrugation depth is identified and design recommendations are made. Satisfactory agreement between experimental measurements and theoretical predictions are demonstrated for feeds which are suitable for use at the prime focus or secondary focus of a reflector antenna.
