dc.description.abstract |
The flange technique, suggested by Reynolds72
is simple technique to improve antenna characteristics.
Using flange technique we can trim the antenna
characteristic by suitably adjusting the flange parameters75.
Later corrugated flanges87 are used for beam shaping. The
important parameters of the corrugated flanges are (a) flange
angle, (b) flange width, (c) flange position, (d) conductivity
of the flange, (e) amplitude excitation of the flange
elements, (f) period of corrugation etc. Compared to a
compound horn the flange technique offers great convenience
in trimming antenna characteristics.
Horns are commonly used as a feed in radar and
satellite communications. A large number of work had been
done to improve the characteristics of horn antennas. It is
an established fact that grooved walls on the inner surface
of a horn can improve the antenna characteristics44.
Corrugated comb surface can be used for the circular
polarization98, tilt of polarization99 etc. This suggests
the possibility to combine these two phenomena and to
obtain a resultant beam. This thesis presents the result
of an investigation to study the possibility of controlling
different antenna characteristics like polarization, beam
shaping, matching etc, using corrugated flange techniques. |
