Abstract

An antenna device is provided. The antenna device includes a reflector having a profile of a parabolic shape in a first cross-section cut parallel to a first direction and a profile of a hyperbolic shape in a second cross-section, the second cross-section being cut perpendicular to the first direction and crossing the first cross-section at a right angle and a radiating structure having at least one phased antenna array adapted to illuminate at least part of the reflector and to scan a beam. The edges of the profile of the parabolic shape of the first cross-section are formed to be directed toward the radiating structure. The edges of the profile of the hyperbolic shape of the reflector are formed to be directed away from the radiating structure. The antenna device may be diversified depending on various embodiments.
