Abstract :
New requirements for wide band operation in areas such as SATCOM, EW, and radio astronomy are stretching the capability of traditional horn antenna designs. New horn types are being developed to meet these requirements. Two examples are presented: the smooth-walled profiled horn and the “bullet” horn.
