Abstract
We discuss in this paper the design, fabrication and test of transmitting and receiving horn antennas based on elliptical apertures. Two prototype antennas have been fabricated, simulated and measured in the S and X band demonstrating the capability of this concept to provide low side lobe levels and good insulation levels.
