Abstract

The far-field radiation patterns from three different circular waveguide antennas are measured with an antenna pattern-mapping system. The radiating ends of the waveguide antennas are each cut at a specific angle relative to the center axis of the waveguide, forming the waveguide launcher component of a Vlasov-type mode convertor. This paper addresses the radiation patterns launched from the waveguide antennas as the first step in the design of a Vlasov-type mode convertor that will function at high power levels in the X-band frequency range (8 to 12 GHz).
