Abstract
The electrical characteristics of a combined horn/cigar antenna are described. The antenna consists of a disc-on-rod (cigar) housed in a conical horn. This antenna combination produces broad-band radiation characteristics with very low sidelobes. Measured voltage standing-wave ratio (VSWR), gain, and pattern characteristics are presented.
