Abstract :
A computer program has been developed to obtain the gain of standard horn aerials in the Fresnel and the far-field regions. The program is the computerisation of Braun´s theoretical results on the gain of pyramidal horns, in which he considers the `intrinsic phase¿ error due to the horn slant heights and the `space phase¿ error due to the aperture of the horn.
