Abstract :
Practically suitable generalized parametric equations of non-parabolic reflectors are obtained. These reflectors are chosen as the main reflectors during radio-physical designing of new dual-reflector axisymmetric antennas. An example of caustic equations is given. Equations of the subreflector are explicitly given.
