Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the deterioration in the radiation characteristics, by installing a parallel flat plate provided with feeding side terminals and antenna side terminals, under a reflecting mirror so as not to shut the aperture of the reflecting mirror. CONSTITUTION:The parallel flat plate 4 is installed at a position under the reflecting mirror 1 so as not to shut the aperture of the reflecting mirror 1. In applying power to any one input waveguide among input waveguides 8a- 8m, the power in the parallel falt plate 4 reaches element antennas 3a-3n via the antenna side terminals 5a-5n and output waveguides 7a-7n, is reflected on the reflecting mirror 1 and is radiated in space. Since the parallel flat plate 4 does not shut the aperture of the reflecting mirror 1, no deterioration in the radiation characteristics exists due to the presence of the parallel flat plate 4. Thus, the deterioration in the radiation characteristics is prevented.
