            Abstract : 
The aim of this work is to design a reflector antenna with a shroud in the frequency band (17.3-19.7) GHz with analysis of Main Reflector, Sub Reflector and Feed. The simulated and test results are validated by the construction and measuring antenna prototypes using the network analyzer and outdoor test range.
