Hi All,
Can any one help me out in designing of Broadband Double Ridged Horn antenna. I have thoroughly gone through the below IEEE papers. There are some doubts arising for me to proceed further on designing.
Walton, K. L. and V. C. Sundberg, “Broadband ridged horn design,” Microwave J., 96–101, March 1964.
Cohn, S. B., “Properties of ridged waveguide,” Proc. IRE, Vol. 35, 783–788, Aug. 1947.
Hopfer, S., “The design of ridged waveguides,” IRE Trans. Microwave Theory Tech., Vol. MIT-3, 20–29, October 1955.

- Does we need to plot the curves (S/A vs λ/A); or else use the readily available curves.
- What should be the mode of propagation to be selected [TE10 or TE20 or TE30].
- What are the wave guide dimensions to be selected ? What are the conditions to select the wave guide dimensions ?
- How the height of the ridge is to be varied in the flared section ? Does it follow any equation.
- What should be the total length of the Horn Antenna ? If so what is the reason for selecting that length ?
