E ‐band high aperture efficiency reflector antenna with adjustable beamwidth

Abstract: This paper presents an E‐band axial displaced ellipse (ADE) reflector antenna with the characteristics of both high aperture efficiency and adjustable beamwidth. Optimization of slightly shaping the subreflector is adopted for a higher aperture efficiency of the entire antenna. Defocusing effect of moving the subreflector can effectively increase the beamwidth, and half‐power beamwidth (HPBW) is adjusted by axially moving the subreflector. The reflector antenna is simulated, fabricated and measured. The apertu… Show more

“…Additionally, ADE reflector antennas also perform better than reflector antennas with other geometry in reflection coefficients and cross-polarization, because there are no subreflector, feed, and self-blockage mechanisms from a geometrical optics (GO) perspective. It has been found that the ADE reflector provides an excellent choice for compact high-gain spacecraft antenna applications [19] . Fig.…”
