  • Abstract
    An efficient algorithm based on Hertz´s principle is presented for ray analysis of nondevelopable hybrid quadric surfaces of revolution. This quasi-analytical method for determining ray geometric parameters as required in high-frequency mutual coupling calculations has wide applications for conformal antennas, including those on aerospace vehicles
