Radome design for hat-fed reflector antenna
Paper in proceeding, 2012
We present the design of a low loss homogenous radome to house a hat-fed reflector antenna for the Ku satellite communication band. The radome is made of polycarbonate and can easily be vacuum formed in series. Simulated and measured data show that the radome has a low reflection coefficient and low ohmic loss, as well as very little effect on the antenna radiation patterns over the required frequency band.
