Abstract :
The authors apply the method of moments to analyse the surface currents and radiation patterns of offset-reflector antennas. For a small disk, the convergence of the techniques is compared with an exact solution. The results presented for an offset reflector are compared with the physical theory of diffraction, and the discrepancies explained
