Q and V band dual offset feed parabolic antenna for satellite communication in equatorial region

Recently, The International Telecommunications Union (ITU) has allocated significant frequency bandwidth in the Q/V band for Fixed-Satellite Services (FSS), making these frequencies potentially useful for future broadband systems. In satellite communication, parabolic reflector antennas are wid...
