ABSTRACT:
A feed system for scanning focal plane antenna systems with which a variable focal spot illumination may be achieved within the focal region of a primary antenna over a limited scanning sector is disclosed. An array of collector elements positioned to receive radiation from a scannable feed antenna is coupled to an array of radiator elements positioned in the focal region of the primary antenna, the positioning of the radiator and collector elements are such that the focal spot illumination is caused to vary with the scan angle of the antenna.
