Short Backfire Antenna with Conical Back Reflector and Double Small Front Reflectors Z. A. Ahmed From Department of Physics, College of Science, University of Basrah, Basrah, Iraq. A modified backfire antenna for x-band is tested and proposed. The antenna comprises a conical back reflector and double plane small front reflectors fed through an open-ended circular waveguides excited with the dominant TE11 mode. The antenna shows a relatively high gain (17.2 db), good suppression of sidelobes (18.2 db below the mainlobe) and symmetrical radiation pattern.
