Abstract :
With spherical antennas, the basic problem is to eliminate the effect of spherical aberration. Although various methods are available, this paper discusses the use of field matching techniques to design high-efficiency corrugated feeds for a 9-ft spherical dish. Both single and dual-reflector antennas are considered, but the emphasis is on the single-reflector system.
