%X This paper presents a novel design of dual-linear-polarized broadband horn antenna for 6~18 GHz frequency band. Applying commercial software Ansoft HFSS, parametric analysis is taken with respect to the best antenna performance and manufacturing tolerance. The proposed antenna is finally fabricated and measured, and the measured results show that the designed antenna exhibits low VSWR (<2), high gain (13 dBi~19.5 dBi) and high isolation (>25 dB) without beam splitting in the entire operation band.
