A major purpose of gradually flaring a waveguide into a horn is to?

  • AProvide a smoother transition from waveguide to free space
  • BCreate a DC short circuit
  • CStop all radiation
  • DIncrease conductor resistance intentionally

Correct Answer: A. Provide a smoother transition from waveguide to free space
Explanation: The flare provides a gradual impedance transition and a larger radiating aperture, improving radiation into free space.
