Response to Comment on “Design, Additive Manufacturing, and Electromagnetic Characterization of Alumina Cellular Structures for Waveguide Antenna”

We thank Dukata et al. for their interest in our work and for raising important points regarding the estimation of the effective dielectric constant of alumina cellular structures. Their comment highlights the relevance of accurate characterization methods. In this note, we aim to clarify the objectives and methodological choices of our study, provide some context on why a simplified approach was considered suitable for our scope, discuss the differences between the two approaches, and suggest possible directions for future investigations.
