you can set up an additional radiation far field setup which covers only a short section (say -10<theta<10) and compute antenna parameters over this region. i got the following results for your model. was the relationship between the magnitudes or rEx and rEy what you were looking for ?
I am also working on corrugated horn antenna and I am getting co-pol(gainx) +20 dB and cross pol(gainy) -18 dB. But, problem is that I am getting peak in cross pol at boresight. Can you help me in finding reason for the same?
hey as i m interested in to test the cross and copolar level when corrugated antenna is verticaly polarised and horizontally polarized both.....
and how did u know it is lineraly polarized in X direction.....

As long as there is a large difference between co-pol and cross-pol, it should be fine. It is common to find a small peak at boresight for the cross-pol also. It depends on your antenna design and we cannot make any guesses without talking specifics.

X, Y are just names labels given to the different axes. In your setup, the E-field vectors were all pointing and oscillating only along the X direction (thus linearly polarized along X).
This can also be seen through the component of E-field vector being maximum along X. (i.e. rEx >> rEy and rEx >> rEy at the far field observation point)
In the given design,corrugated horn is excited using circular wveguide which is excited using waveport and the number of modes used is 2 in +X and +Y direction,so how i could rotate my input setup in HFSS

Now, I am getting very good response. co polarization is 21 dB and cross polarization is now -62 dB

just by giving modes in reverse order. means, if you have define 1st mode in x direction, then replace it by giving it in y direction and 2nd one in the x direction in place of y direction. k?
