Abstract :
A design procedure based on the principles of geometrical optics, for any arbitrary amplitude and phase distributions, is described for antennas employing dielectric-cone feeds. The procedure can be used for dual-reflector antennas, reflector antennas with a subreflector supported with dielguides and reflector antennas using dielectric-cone feeds with a shaped reflecting surface of the cone material.
