Abstract :
The electromagnetic properties of a planar array of E plane sectoral horns have been analysed. Computed results are presented and compared with measurements. A more exact criterion for the existence of mutual-coupling nulls is also presented, which predicts an H plane null in a particular array which is not predicted by previous criteria.
