摘要
- In designing a contoured beam for communication satellite services, a reflector antenna remains the most preferred option. Previously, a multi-beam technique employing many feed horns at optimal feed positions was proposed to obtain a precise contour beam for Malaysia. However, it has led to feed horn overlapping when the beams were arranged closely. Therefore, this issue of beam allocation and feed horn size shall be addressed. In this article, an analysis of the relationship between feed position and beam direction is analysed useful design chart was derived for no feed horn overlapping conditions, which determines beam separation and feed horn size at different values of F/D. A practicoverage was demonstrated to validate the derived correbeam width and high gain.
