Abstract :
In this paper, a simple structure, microstrip-fed, dual-polarized, quad-ridgeded horn antenna is proposed. The VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio) of proposed antenna is less than 2.2 for the frequency range of 0.8-6 GHz. The measurement results of VSWR, isolation, gain and radiation patterns are presented and discussed.
