Abstract

A new method for finding radiation patterns and the reflection coefficients associated with an axisymmetric waveguide fed horn is presented. The approach is based on a hybrid finite element method (FEM) wherein the electromagnetic fields in the FEM region are coupled to the fields outside by two surface integral equations. Because of the local nature of the FEM, this formalism allows for the presence of inhomogeneities to be included in the problem domain. The matrix equation which results from the application of this method is shown to be complex-symmetric. Comparisons of calculated and measured data for two different horns show good agreement.
