Using a Conical Horn as Compact Antenna Test Range Feed in Millimetre Bands
Paper in proceeding, 2022
Using a conical horn as a feed for a single offset-fed Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR) is described. Although such horn has larger variation of the phase centre with frequency and slightly different beamwidth in the E-plane and H-plane within the used field of view, as compared to a specially designed corrugated horn feed, good results were obtained for the measured amplitude and phase variations in the Quiet Zone at mm-band. Some details of application of conventional conical horns as CATR feeds are also explained.
