Abstract :
Maximum efficiency for a given feed size is obtained if the resultant field from the feed matches in the conjugate sense the incident field at the aperture of the feed. A previous study of shallow reflectors shows that the mode composition required to achieve a good match can be obtained analytically. Graphic computer techniques used to study deep reflectors are discussed.
