Abstract

An ultra-low profile airborne reflector antenna with an arbitrary polarization feed system and a wide-range scanning faculty has been proposed for the broadband satellite communication use. We have chosen a shaped elliptical dual reflector antenna with reflector shaping technique to realize both the ultra-low profile and high electric performances. A novel thin-type broadband OMT with pyramid-loaded waveguide turnstile junction has been presented to obtain the arbitrary polarization thin feed system.
