Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-functional compact antenna system having high broadband capability, comprising a radar reflector that comprises at least two bipolar radiating elements, the radiating elements being symmetrically arranged in a cross-wise manner at an angle of 90°+/?10° and being electrically connected to one another at least at their intersection. The invention provides for an omnidirectional antenna characteristic in the azimuth plane and allows to maximise the radiation in the elevation plane around the elevation angle close to zero degrees.

Abstract: An arrangement for feeding a centrally focused reflector antenna includes a waveguide (1), a dielectric field transformer (2) arranged on the waveguide (1) and a mounting platform (3) for a series of modules (8) which is embodied on one end of the waveguide (1). The waveguide (1) is provided with an arrangement for receiving the dielectric field transformer (2) which partially protrudes into the waveguide (1). Preferably, a dielectric support (9) may be provided in the vicinity of the dielectric field transformer (2). The middle of the support has a circular bore (12) whose diameter corresponds to the diameter of the dielectric field transformer (2). The centrally focused reflector antenna can be excited in the focal point thereof in a field-optimum broadband manner.

In a preferred embodiment, a dielectric support (9) is provided in the vicinity of the dielectric field transformer (2). The middle of said support has a circular bore (12) whose diameter corresponds to the diameter of the dielectric fields transformer (2). One advantage of the invention is that the centrally focused reflector antennae can be excited in the focal point thereof in a field-optimum broadband manner. No mechanically displaced components are required as a result of the dielectric fields transformer.
