X/X/Ka-Band Horn Design

Abstract

Tne NASA's Deep Space Network has a need for a multi frequency horn for simultaneous X/X/Ka-band operation in a beam waveguide antenna. The multi frequency horn will receive X-band downlink (8.4-8.5 GHz) and Ka-band downlink (3.18-32.3 GHz), and transmit X-band uplink (7.145-7.235 GHz) signals simultaneously. The horn is designed for circularlly polarized wave operation. Low loss (noise) and high power (up to 20 kilowatts) operation are considered in the horn design.
