Abstract (en)

A spacecraft antenna system has feed means, preferably two separate feeds (6,7), a single shaped main reflector (3) and at least two, preferably two, shaped sub-reflectors (4,5) which are operable simultaneously to provide coverage to or from more than one coverage area. One sub-reflector (4,5) thus covers one specific coverage area.
