The design of a multifrequency feed system for the microwave radiometer for
Ocean Sat-II satellite covering 18.7. 23.8 and co 36.5GHz frequency bands
is reported. A groove discontinuity is introduced at the input of the corru
gated hom to optimise amplitude taper and the symmetry of primary patterns
at the highest frequency without affecting the performance at lower frequen
cy bands. Computed and measured radiation patterns are compared at all the
frequencies.
