  • Abstract
    The radiation characteristics of electromagnetic horns loaded with curved transverse dielectric slabs and radial dielectric strips are investigated experimentally. It is shown that the axial directivity and halfpower beamwidth of horn antennas may be significantly improved with such schemes of dielectric loading.
