Abstract :
As a feasibility study, following the successful design of an X/Ka band feed system for a military satellite earth terminal [1], the CSIRO, in collaboration with BAE Systems Australia, has looked at the possibility of extending the capability of the original feed system to cater for potential military maritime applications. The CSIRO X/Ka-band feed system is made up of an optimised coaxial horn and a compact, complex feed-system which makes it ideal for applications where space is at a premium.
