Ts. Bird et Dg. Bateman, MUTUAL COUPLING BETWEEN ROTATED HORNS IN A GROUND PLANE, IEEE transactions on antennas and propagation, 42(7), 1994, pp. 1000-1006
Two formulations are presented for the mutual admittance of rotated re
ctangular apertures. in a ground plane. One extends an earlier solutio
n, and the other is a third-order asymptotic formula that is shown to
be accurate when the apertures satisfy the Rayleigh distance criterion
. These formulations are combined with a conventional mode-matching ap
proach to study coupling between rotated horns. Results am presented f
or both coupling formulations, and these demonstrate excellent agreeme
nt with experiment for coplanar pyramidal and sectoral horns.
