Theoretical investigations carried out for the far-field-radiation-pattern prediction of conical horns excited in the spherical TMmn and TEmn modes are applied on the radiation-pattern analysis of TM01 and TE01 modes. The results, valid even for conical horns with large flare angles, provide an optimum horn design for a maximum gain slope near the boresight axis.

Inspec keywords: waveguide antennas; antenna radiation patterns; antenna theory

Other keywords: optimum horn design; higher order modes; far field radiation pattern; conical horns; boresight axis; maximum gain slope

Subjects: Antenna theory
