Validated Antenna Models for Standard Gain Horn Antennas

Abstract

Developed radiation pattern models of standard gain horn antennas using High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software are presented in this technical note. The models were validated using data measured in an anechoic chamber. Comparison tables of the beamwidth, sidelobe level and first null beamwidth of the measured and modeled radiation patterns for E-plane and H-plane patterns are also presented. Finally, figures depicting the measured and modeled antenna patterns are shown in the appendix.
