Abstract :
Computation of immersed patterns including mutual coupling and edge effects is proposed in order to define a new step for the synthesis of multifed antennas. This procedure has been applied to the DBS and AMERICA-GOV antennas of HISPASAT satellite reaching an improvement versus synthesis with isolated patterns.
