Abstract

The aim of this paper is to obtain accurate reference data for relatively large and realistic reflector antenna systems. We concentrate on a parabolic reflector antenna in the H-polarization case. The directive primary feed is modeled by the complex source point method and the relative accuracy of the results is verified.
