This paper presents a synthesis technique of the dual offset shaped reflector antenna using Differential Evolution with Global and Local neighborhoods (DEGL) algorithm. The main reflector and subreflector are parameterized by Zernike polynomial expansion. With these expansion coefficients, the antenna is optimized to achieve a contoured beam covering the China territory in Ku-band. The performance of the antenna is calculated by Physical Optics (PO) and Physical Theory of Diffraction (PTD) techniques. The calculated results are validated by the commercial software GRASP9.3.01.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
