A FORTRAN Computer Program to Compute the Radiation Pattern of an Array-Fed Paraboloid Reflector.

Abstract

This report describes a Fortran computer program to compute the radiation pattern of a paraboloid reflector fed by an array. The program is formulated without simplification and approximation assumptions. Its results should represent an exact solution. The program is designed so that it is efficient for multiple sources. Judging from the examples computed, the increase in computer time is modest when the number of source of elements increases.
