Abstract
In this paper, the impact of the structure scattering between the horn and subreflector of a Cassegrain reflector antenna system has been presented. Typical design steps involve (1) feed design that has very good VSWR and (2) use the far field pattern to compute the illumination on the subreflector and subsequently the main reflector to determine the far field pattern of the whole antenna system.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
