摘要: A corrugated circular horn of exceptional bandwith, spanning both bands 2 and 3 ALMA radio telescope (67–116 GHz) is presented. Design, thanks to a long transition region an input matching non-standard waveguide section, achieves very good return loss polarization purity in excess 30 dB over band about 50%.
