Abstract
Computed and measured data show that mutual coupling between the launcher and rod-end apertures of a uniform cylindrical dielectric-rod antenna is responsible for certain second-order effects in the radiation pattern. The synthesis of a smooth tapered dielectric antenna by a stepped profile and complications arising from interstep coupling are also discussed.
