Design, analysis and manufacturing of dielectric rod added conical horn antennas

In this study, ANSYS HFSS (High Frequency Structural Simulator) software had been used. By using this software, dielectric rod added conical horn antennas with various shapes and dimensions had been designed and analyzed. 5 (five) distinct antennas designed and their gains and return losses had been observed to evaluate the effects of the changes. From the results of these comparisons, the proper antenna type was selected and it was manufactured.
