  • Abstract
    The synthesis of a dual offset reflector system with uniform aperture phase is formulated using mathematically exact equations under the assumptions of geometrical optics. We demonstrate the existence of numerical solutions to problems of practical significance. The key to the numerical method is the ability to solve the Monge-Amp¿¿re equation as a boundary value problem. It is shown that the complexity of the analysis is no greater than that involved in single reflector synthesis and both reflectors are produced simultaneously.
