Construction & Working of Horn Antenna: Experiment5

The document describes designing a lossless horn antenna with Scilab to have a directivity of 20dB at 10GHz. It explains the working of horn antennas, including pyramidal, sectoral, E-plane and H-plane horns. It then shows the Scilab code used to calculate the frequency, wavelength, maximum effective aperture, and maximum received power based on the given directivity, incident power density, and other parameters. The code is run to design the horn antenna with the specified directivity at 10GHz.

Construction & Working of Horn Antenna

The energy of the beam when slowly transform into radiation, the losses are reduced and the
focussing of the beam improves. A Horn antenna may be considered as a flared out wave
guide, by which the directivity is improved and the diffraction is reduced.

Pyramidal horn (a, right) – a horn antenna with the horn in the shape of a four-sided
pyramid, with a rectangular cross section. They are a common type, used with rectangular
waveguides, and radiate linearly polarized radio waves.[12]

Sectoral horn – A pyramidal horn with only one pair of sides flared and the other pair
parallel. It produces a fan-shaped beam, which is narrow in the plane of the flared sides,
but wide in the plane of the narrow sides. These types are often used as feed horns for wide
search radar antennas.

E-plane horn (b) – A sectoral horn flared in the direction of the electric or E-field in the
waveguide.

H-plane horn (c) – A sectoral horn flared in the direction of the magnetic or H-field in the
waveguide.

Horns have very little loss, so the directivity of a horn is roughly equal to its gain.[1] The
gain G of a pyramidal horn antenna (the ratio of the radiated power intensity along its beam
axis to the intensity of aHorns have very little loss, so the directivity of a horn is roughly
equal to its gain.[1] The gain G of a pyramidal horn antenna (the ratio of the radiated
power intensity along its beam axis to the intensity of an isotropic antenna with the same
input power) is:[18]
