Manual of Gain Correction Data for Standard Gain Horn Antennas

Abstract

The purpose of this manual is to provide correction data for the antenna gain when measuring standard gain horns at finite range. A procedure for finite range correction of measured horn coupling data was developed under this contract. This procedure permits the far field gain of a standard gain horn to be determined from on-axis coupling measurements between two horn antennas with finite range separation. Keywords include: Standard gain antennas, Horn antennas, Antenna gain, Geometrical Theory of Diffraction, and Corrugated horns.
