Abstract :
This paper describes the design of a dual-frequency compact corrugated horn for use on Ku/K telecommunication satellite antennas. Very stringent requirements for matching, cross polarization and power handling have been satisfied by means of a suitable design strategy. The good comparison between measurements and computations provides a validation of the present design methodology.
