Abstract
The present paper deals with the design of modern corrugated horn antennas for extremely low sidelobe level with the
use of the well known corrugated Gaussian Profiled Horn Antenna aperture (corrugated GPHA’s) to improve the
radiation pattern and reduce the antenna size.
Some design rules will be given so that an initial nice profile can be used quickly as input profile of modern
optimization ...

The present paper deals with the design of modern corrugated horn antennas for extremely low sidelobe level with the
use of the well known corrugated Gaussian Profiled Horn Antenna aperture (corrugated GPHA’s) to improve the
radiation pattern and reduce the antenna size.
Some design rules will be given so that an initial nice profile can be used quickly as input profile of modern
optimization codes to improve the size. This initial profile can reduce the computing time of an optimization program
quite a lot, so it is usually the method we use to design the final corrugated horns in our own optimization code. [--]
