Abstract
A prime focus low sidelobe parabolic reflector antenna with self-supported feed is designed for low sidelobe, applications. The parabolic reflector diameter is between I nine and 12 wavelengths. A simple design is achieved to satisfy,the required first sidelobe level. The design is performed numerically using a computer code for bodies of revolutions (AKBOR2). The measured radiation patterns of the 18-in reflector system are presented. Good agreement between computed and measured radiation patterns is obtained.
