A compact dual frequency feed horn is designed and optimized to operate at W-band (94.92 GHz) and G-band (238 GHz). The feed horn consists of a single spline profile horn, a diplexer having W- and G-band ports and a band pass filter at the W-band port. The filter provides isolation between the W- and G-band ports. Simulations show a directivity of 21.9 dB and -12 dB beam width of 28 degrees at 94.92 GHz and 26.27 dB and 17 degrees respectively at 238 GHz. The dual frequency horn will be used as part of a W/G-band breadboard atmospheric radar.
