Abstract :
Reflector antennas are frequently used antennas for X-band satellite communication. An X Band reflector antenna placed on a ship will be subject to pattern blockage when satellite antenna is shadowed by a complex structure, here the ship body. This paper aims to analyze the shadowing effect of the ship by using uniform theory of diffraction (UTD), a high frequency asymptotic method
