Abstract
The authors present a step-by-step design procedure for an electrically optimal offset dual reflector antenna with a circular exit aperture, starting from typical physical requirements. This procedure is based on the Mizugutchi and Rusch conditions, augmented by some new equations that have been derived to simplify the design process. The procedure has been used to design two representative antennas, a Cassegrain and a Gregorian.<>
