Abstract

In this paper, the design and the measurements of a Gaussian profiled horn antenna for the 11.7-12.2 GHz frequency band for the HISPASAT 1C satellite are presented. The study shows the possibility of improving the electromagnetic and physical features of conventional horn antennas by using Gaussian techniques.
