Abstract
Power transfer between circular apertures at far-field distances is calculated using a widely applicable aperture distribution with adjustable sidelobe ratio. Power transfer efficiency is obtained by integrating the pattern out to the angle subtended by the receiving aperture. Efficiency is parameterized such that a single curve results for each sidelobe ratio, independent of transmit D/λ, over a range of 5 to 500.
