Rotationally symmetric antennas composed of a circular waveguide with conical flange and a metallic scatterer are investigated for TTC of satellites at Ku-band. A dual-band antenna with coverage greater than a hemisphere is designed using a procedure based on moment method (MM) and bodies of revolution (BOR) formulation.
