Abstract (en)

[origin: US4825218A] A telecommunications antenna is provided with a reflector having a semi-offset geometry, a feed mounted on a feed source rigidly fixed to the reflector, an antenna pedestal for supporting the reflector and the feed. Positioning of the feed is such that, in respect of a reflector illumination half-angle beta as seen from the feed such that 45 DEG < beta <55 DEG , the offset angle alpha (angle between the focal axis DELTA Foc and the median ray of the total beam which is emitted by the feed and illuminates the reflector) is 25 DEG < alpha <35 DEG , the antenna mount being of the azimuth-elevation type known as an az-el mount.
