Effect of CW-396A Radome on the Radiation Pattern of Rectangular Antennas.

Abstract

This report studies the effect of the CW-396A radome on the radiation pattern of a number of different rectangular antennas. It was found that this radome produces grating lobes, which are approximately 30 dB below the main beam level at L-band and approximately 23 dB lower at S-band. A FORTRAN listing of the computer program used is included in this report.
