ABSTRACT:
An antenna system includes a beam source of a microwave wave beam, a gimbaled antenna, and a waveguide including a mirror system that directs the microwave wave beam from the beam source to the antenna. The mirror system is formed of a series of mirrors operable to reflect the microwave wave beam and includes a first paraboloid mirror positioned to receive the microwave wave beam from the beam source, a first planar mirror positioned to receive the microwave wave beam from the first paraboloid mirror, a second paraboloid mirror positioned to receive the microwave wave beam from the first planar mirror, and a second planar mirror lying on the system azimuth axis and positioned to receive the microwave wave beam from the second paraboloid mirror. The first planar mirror may be controllably tilted to finely steer the aim of the microwave wave beam to the antenna.
