摘要：
A compact flare angle controlled corrugated horn antenna with a 60 degrees half beamwidth is optimised by using a moment method for bodies of revolution. The horn has corrugations with simple rectangular cross-sections and is excited by a smooth wall circular waveguide. The resulting 15dB beamwidth varies by <18% and the crosspolar sidelobe levels are more than 26dB below the mainlobe, both over a 1.8:1 bandwidth. All results are confirmed by measurements, The horn is suited for broadband feeding of e.g. prime-focus reflectors in radio astronomy applications.
