Broadband and Low-Profile H-Plane Ridged Horn Antenna

This paper presents a broadband and low-profile Hplane horn antenna mounted on a large ground plane. By employing stepped ridges and an ellipse-shaped copper taper extended along the horn aperture, the proposed antenna achieves a wide bandwidth from 4.2 GHz to 18 GHz for VSWR 2 while retaining...
