Abstract :
Results for a microstrip disc and a new disc and ring element used as reflector feeds are given. The disc and ring feed gives improved performance over the disc having a -24dB cross polarisation level over a 7% bandwidth when used to feed an F/D = 0.3 reflector. Results are comparable to those previously obtained for small microstrip array feeds.
