Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0236160A1] The antenna, being placed in a ventral radome (8), enables surveillance, tracking and air-surface fire control to be realised. <??>It comprises a reflector (12) in the shape of a paraboloid of revolution about the longitudinal axis (X), integral with a box (3). This assembly is rotatably mounted about the transverse axis (Y), and about the vertical axis (Z) inside the radome. <??>Rotation about the longitudinal axis (X), called the roll axis, is realised by setting into rotation the transmitting source (2) by setting-into-rotation means placed inside the box and the duct (1). The reflector (12) being fixed under roll, the surface of the latter can extend over the whole interior cross-section of the radome, the rotation of the radar beam following the roll axis being obtained by rotating the source relative to the reflector. <IMAGE>
