Abstract
Profiled dielectric loaded horns are investigated with the aim of obta ining low peak crosspolar level and high aperture efficiency. A number of nonlinear profiles are considered. The paper also looks into the i nfluence of profiling on the bandwidth of the horn and the effect of n onuniformities in the dielectric material on horn performance.
