Abstract.
The numerical
simulations of matching and radiation characteristics of
TEM horns in UWB of frequencies were conducted with using the finite element
method.The characteristics of regular horns and two types of irregular TEM horns with uniform impedance – with a
monotonically increasing and monotonically decreasing value of the local angle
of the solution are researched.
