  • Abstract
    The radiation pattern of a focus-fed offset hyperbolic reflector is determined by using the uniform geometrical theory of diffraction (UTD) and the uniform asymptotic theory of diffraction (UAT). The patterns predicted by these two theories are observed to differ considerably around incident and reflection boundaries. The effects of the slope diffraction as well as those of additional terms in the improved UTD solution are ignored.
