Abstract :
This paper is concerned with research on a new solution-spherical reflector antenna using aperture synthesis with surface partitioning. The results show that this method is a feasible way to solve the feed issue for a large radio telescope because of its simple construction, wide bandwidth, and adequate area utilization
