Abstract

A double grid reflector antenna for radiating different signals having pure linear orthogonal polarization comprises a couple of identical and superposed reflecting grids. One of said grids has been rotated its boresight to disengage its focus from that of the other, and feeds are set in the focal plane of the respective grids. The front grid reflects indifferently either horizontal or vertical polarization, while transmitting the orthogonal polarization to be reflected by the rear grid.
