Abstract

An antenna system includes a reflector grid which reflects signals which are within the operative frequency range of the antenna and passes received signals of higher frequency. An absorber is placed proximate to the reflector grid to absorb signals which are passed by the grid. A second reflector located proximate to the absorber reflects signals back through the absorber such that signals reflected by the antenna system are twice attenuated by the absorber.
