Abstract :
Experimental results for the radiation patterns of sectoral horns and corner reflector antennas loaded with uniform and wedge-shaped dielectric slabs along the walls are presented. The results clearly indicate that it is possible to improve the directivity in all cases without a significant increase in the overall antenna weight.
