Abstract :
Using the Kirchhoff-Huygens-Silver integration technique, amplitude and phase scattering patterns have been computed for secondary mirrors designed to compensate for artificially generated profile errors on the surface of a small paraboloid. The consequences of the frequency-dependent amplitude redistribution across the aperture of the antenna are discussed.
