摘要
An antenna system comprising a feed array, a subreflector and a main reflector which are oriented to define a side-fed dual reflector antenna geometry. The feed array is comprised of a plurality of separate feeds which are aligned on a predetermined contour. Each feed array is coupled to a feed network which acts to combine the illumination beams of clusters of a preselected number of feeds to produce a plurality of composite illumination beams. Each composite illumination beam is directed to be incident upon a separate preselected location on the subreflector which directs the composite illumination beams towards the main reflector. Each composite illumination beam is reflected by the main reflector in a preselected direction so that each composite illumination beam forms an antenna beam that impinges a predetermined coverage area on the Earth. Each antenna beam defines a separate coverage cell in the coverage area, wherein the position and orientation of the feeds, the subreflector and the main reflector provides antenna beams over a full Earth field of view coverage area where each antenna beam is approximately symmetrically shaped.
