Abstract :
A X-band horn antenna fed by two rectangular waveguides with a build-in 1:2 divider is presented. The VSWR of the antenna is lower than 1.5 and its gain is approximately greater by 3 dB than a conventional horn having the same length. Very good agreement between simulation and measurement was achieved.
