Abstract

A square dual-polarization horn antenna with a thin metamaterial lining the walls is shown to provide low sidelobes, low cross-polarized radiation, and radiation patterns that are approximately independent of polarization. This horn represents a low cost alternative to corrugated and other soft feed horns. By operating a distance away from the resonance in the metamaterial, the liner introduces a minimum of loss to the horn.
