In this work, the shape of the a 0.9m reflector is distorted in such a way that the Near Field around the feed is reduced by 15–20 dB relative to unshaped reflector. The shaping has been carefully carried out in order not to lose Gain and aperture efficiency. The performance of Reflector is analysed with mono-groove polarizer based profiled horn CP feed in S-Band. The resultant design has a EoC Gain of >21 dBi in +/-4.25 deg coverage and has shown > 12 dB improvement in Cross Polarization Isolation when compared to Unshaped paraboloid.","PeriodicalId":201547,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Indian Conference on Antennas and Propagation (InCAP)","volume":"221 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116762813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fundamental mode (TM101) of the derived cavity is controlled by a perturbation via. TM102 and TM201 modes are employed to generate the filter passband. Along with the perturbation via a pair of slot lines with ‘V’ shaped configuration is loaded into the compact SIW cavity to control the intermodal couplings and govern the passband bandwidth.
