Abstract
For a small earth station, a detailed comparative study of three types of dual offset reflector antenna is presented. These are the shaped dual-reflector antenna, the sector-shaped paraboloidal reflector antenna and the spherical offset reflector antenna. The efficiency, the radiation patterns and the complexity of fabrication are some of the aspects considered.
