Abstract :
A modified procedure is proposed for the design of shaped-beam reflectors in general. The procedure involves explicitly the size of the reflector as a parameter and can thus be used to check quickly the minimum size of a reflector needed for a given shaped beam. Experimental results are given for a reflector designed on this basis.
