Abstract :
The problem of predicting the radiation pattern for an asymmetrically illuminated paraboloid is covered in some detail. The current distribution method is given in a final form suitable for machine computation. An approximate analytical solution using scalar diffraction methods is compared with the experimental results and the machine solution.
