Crosspolarisation properties of reflector antennas with random surface errors
Abstract
The crosspolarisation properties of symmetric front-fed paraboloids with random surface errors are investigated. Average crosspolar far-field patterns and crosspolarisation discriminations are computed for different RMS surface errors. The influence of the correlation interval and phase-error model used is indicated.
