Description
From the experts at the Antenna Section of Mitsubishi Electric Corporation, Tokyo, comes this practical reference analyzing design and analysis methods, and mechanical design and product assurance as well. Study of advanced topics is supplied, covering beam waveguide forming and reflector shaping technology; practical technologies are also included, with test and maintenance demonstrations performed by leading antenna manufacturing companies. The only sourcebook to cover every aspect of satellite communication antenna technology, this reference is the first comprehensive book on multireflector antennas based on beam mode theory. Emphasizing the importance of mechanical design and practical design formulas of shaped beam technology, the book is helpful for satellite communication systems and antenna engineers, research, design and manufacturing engineers, and those involved in operations and maintennace of satellite communication antennas.
