Development of the Theory and Algorithms for Synthesis of Reflector Antenna Systems

Abstract

The main objective of this work is research and development of the theory and constructive computational algorithms for synthesis of single and dual reflector antenna systems in geometric optics approximation. During the reporting period the direct and inverse problems of design of reflector antennas were investigated. In case of single reflector antennas explicit conditions for solvability of the partial differential equation describing the system were established. An algorithm, based on a special diffusion process, for solving the equation numerically was developed and tested. Differential geometric methods were applied successfully to describe and investigate the single and dual reflector antenna systems.
