ABSTRACT:
A microwave single reflector antenna is provided with a large field of view and high aperture efficiency. The antenna exhibits good lateral scanning while preserving excellent focusing capabilities. The high aperture efficiency yields higher antenna performance than a conventional reflector antenna of the same size, or the same performance as a conventional scanning antena of larger size. The antenna has an improved surface configuration defined by a fourth-order profile extended into a three-dimensional focusing surface.
