The analysis of radiation parameters dependence of rectangular waveguide on its dimensions change

Analysis of radiation from 3 centimeter waveband rectangular waveguide at the change of the side sizes is carried out for the purpose of efficiency estimation of its use as reflector parabolic antenna exciter. Some performance characteristics of radioelectronic systems depend on antennas types which are used. Recently, the development of antenna systems occurred mainly not by creating new, and by improving the parameters and characteristics of existing antennas. Therefore, there is a practical need to find ways to improve their elements. A detailed analysis of the radiation from the open end of the rectangular waveguide allows to specify exactly which of its parameters and characteristics need to be improved. Dependence charts of directional diagram (DD) in planes E and H, radiation power, directivity upon variation of side sizes a, b are received. Dependence charts of attenuation coefficient upon frequency for wave types H10, H01, H02, H11, E11 are drawn up. Estimation of reasonability of using rectangular waveguide as reflector parabolic antenna exciter is received.
