The horn antenna may transmit and/or receive RF signals in multiple frequency bands that are spread over more than an octave bandwidth with at least a 2.44-to-1 bandwidth ratio. The horn antenna includes a throat, an aperture, and an interior surface. The feed network includes a first waveguide section, a first junction, one or more first filters, and a first step-down waveguide section. The first waveguide section can provide a matching network and transmit and/or receive the RF signals in the multiple frequency bands. The first junction can transmit and/or receive the RF signals in first selected band(s) of the multiple frequency bands. The first step-down waveguide section may transmit and/or receive the RF signals in second selected band(s) of the multiple frequency bands.

摘要： A method and system for reconfiguring an antenna system are disclosed. The system comprises a feed horn, a subreflector, and a main reflector. The feed horn is pointed at an axis removed from the bisector axis of the subreflector. The distance between the feed horn and the subreflector can be changed to defocus the feed horn with respect to the subreflector, wherein a size of the outgoing beam emanating from the main reflector changes when the distance between the feed horn and the subreflector is changed. The method comprises pointing an axis of a feed horn at a subreflector, wherein the axis of the feed horn is aligned differently from the bisector axis of the subreflector, and changing the distance between the feed horn and the subreflector to defocus the feed horn with respect to the subreflector, wherein a size of an outgoing beam emanating from a main reflector changes when the distance between the feed horn and the subreflector is changed.

摘要： An antenna configuration suitable for LEO/MEO satellites includes a plurality of lenses whereby each lens has a plurality of feed horns positioned with respect to the lens. The lens has a first surface and a second surface. The plurality of feed horns is disposed upon a curved surface. Each of the plurality of feed horns generates a beam that has a phase distribution. The phase distributions have a predetermined phase relationship with the first surface and preferably the second surface. This allows the lens to transmit and receive a signal with desired phase distribution across a cross-section of the beam. The beams from the plurality of lenses are inter-leaved on the ground to form a contiguous coverage with multiple overlapping spot-beams.

摘要： A dual-band multiple beam antenna system for a communications satellite sharing a set of reflector antennas for the transmit and receive frequencies. One set of reflectors is common to both the downlink and uplink frequencies. The feed horns are diplexed and exhibit frequency-dependent radiation patterns that separate the phase centers over the downlink and uplink frequency bands to obtain dual-band performance. The focal point of the reflector is in close proximity to the phase center corresponding to the downlink frequency band. The phase center for the uplink frequency band is spaced a predetermined distance from the phase center of the downlink frequency band. According to the present invention, the uplink frequencies are defocused and the downlink frequencies are focused thereby creating identical radiation patterns at both frequency bands and over the coverage region of the communications satellite.

摘要： A reconfigurable multiple beam phased array antenna has radiating elements arranged in a planar array and variable phase shifters. Each one of the phase shifters is connected to a respective one of the radiating elements. The array antenna further includes a beam forming network for forming spot and regional beam signals.

Each one of the first set of ports is connected to a respective one of the radiating elements with. The Rotman lenses generate frequency invariant spot beam signals which are communicated between the radiating elements and the Rotman lenses via the first set of ports for transmission and reception of spot beams and regional beams by the radiating elements. The phase shifters are adjusted to steer the spot and regional beams to desired locations.
