Feed system design of a parabolic reflector antenna for Malaysia shaped beam coverage

For Malaysia satellite communication services, MEASAT 3 is now in operation. Based on the satellite footprint, the contour beam shape for Malaysia coverage can be improved by employing multi-beam technology. In order to achieve precise multi-beam positions in a parabolic reflector antenna system, ad...
