  • Abstract
    A simple formula for estimation of gain is verified for the shaped-beam antenna. As an example, experimental results of five Hogg-horn antennas, along with their mean values, are published and compared with the simple approximation of gain. The simple gain approximation could be very valuable for system engineers to accurately estimate antenna gain and perform EMC calculations (estimations of interference and susceptibility).
