  • Abstract
    A simple dual-mode conical horn has been developed and tested at 0.5, 1.4, 3.1, and 34.2 mm. The horn has nearly equal beam shape in the E and H plane far field patterns with a 3-dB half angle of 6°. At 34.2 mm, the waveguide reflection loss and the phase center have been determined.
