A prototype DSN X-S band feed: DSS 13 application status, second report
Abstract
A combiner was designed and fabricated for injecting X- and S-band into a horn for use at various DSN sites. Results indicate that the S-band combiner is much too narrow for use in both receiving and transmitting and that the horn patterns, when scattered, yield an improved efficiency over the present horn-hyperbola system. Predicted performance at DSS 13 by the calculated scattering of the model radiation patterns from the DSS 13 hyperbola is also discussed.
