Abstract :
We propose a modified DCMP method that considers the influence of the interpolation network. An onboard array-fed-reflector antenna with the interpolation network is designed using the modified DCMP method. We confirmed the validity of the method by calculating the resulting antenna patterns. The antenna patterns formed by the array feeder with the interpolation network satisfy the required antenna performance.
