Abstract
The design of a corrugated feed is presented which has a simplified configuration in comparison to a feed with dual-depth corrugations over its full length. It exhibits excellent electrical performance which is compatible with the requirements for frequency reuse application in satellite communication antennas. The feed consists of a short dual-depth corrugated launcher and a conventional corrugated horn. Important electrical characteristics of such a feed designated for operation in the standard bands of 4 and 6 GHz satellite communication links are presented.
