For achieving low cross-polarization component in addition to circular-coverage pattern in compact structure, this paper proposes a novel multimode horn with arbitrary coaxial-corrugation configuration which plays two roles of mode converters and chokes. The proposed horn can be designed by iteration of non-linear optimization procedure based on generalized scattering matrices pre-calculated by the mode-matching technique. We show a compact horn with four coaxial corrugations for shaping circular-coverage beam over frequency range of bandwidth 20%. The effectiveness of the designed horn is discussed by evaluating VSWR and radiation characteristics in X-band numerically and experimentally.
