摘要：
This paper proposes a reconfigured horn antenna with reduced side-lobe radiation by using electromagnetic band gap (EBG) structure. A mushroom-like structure with a circular-shaped patch as unit cell is designed to achieve a complete EBG. The EBG structure is lined on the metal wall along the E-plane of the horn antenna. This causes the surface waves on the metal wall to be suppressed, resulting in lower side-lobe emission. A conducting wedge is inserted on the gap between the EBG structure and waveguide feed aperture to achieve impedance matching in the antenna. In addition, the proposed horn antenna is suitable for high power systems due to a purely metallic construction of the EBG structure.
