Abstract:

This report covers studies performed to fabricate various models to establish sufficient design data for the fabrication of 96 in lightweight serpentine waveguide structures. A single convolution of a serpentine waveguide was simulated and tested. Testing revealed the presence of higher modes than the fundamental TEg, mode such transmission would have a deleterious effect on the array pattern. A new configuration in the form of uniform helical waveguide is presented as the possible answer in the electronically steerable arrays. A lightweight model of a serpentine section described by AGA drawing C612-026 and B612-003 was accomplished. Author
