In this article, a new method to design an optimum gain horn antenna is presented. This method is based on improving existing design equations along with the use of particle swarm optimization technique. The obtained results are more accurate than those available in the literature since no path length error approximation is involved. Improved horn dimensions, for different 15 designs, are obtained which give the desired gain almost exactly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
