How does Antenna Work?

Two types of Antenna's

1. High Efficiency (HEF)

2. Beam Waveguide (BWG)

1. High Efficiency (HEF)

Antenna Receiving Signal

Receiving Signals

1. Signals coming in reflecting off the bowl
2. Focusing up through the subreflector
3. Traveling down to be processing

Antenna Transmitting Signal

Transmitting Signals

1. Signals coming through to be transmitted
2. Focused off the subreflector
3. Reflected of the reflector surface to be transmitted into space.

2. Beam Waveguide

Beam Waveguide Signals

1. Radio waves are focused through the subreflector
2. Radio waves are further focused through the foci and travel down the antenna
3. Radio waves travel down the beam wave guide through a series of twists and turns
4. Radio waves end up below the antenna where they can be processed on site
