Derivation of a condition for the normal gain behavior of pyramidal horns.

The pyramidal horn exhibits a normal monotonically increasing gain versus frequency characteristic, only when its axial length is more than a certain minimum value for given aperture dimensions. In this letter, approximate equations are derived for estimating this minimum axial length
