Abstract :
A hybrid physical optics-moment method for the analysis of the radiation from reflector antennas having complex metallic struts of arbitrary shape and off-axis feeding has been presented. Both predicted and measured results are provided. The good agreement between prediction and measurements demonstrate the accuracy of the technique.
