Abstract: A primary radiator is provided which can be used in an attenna to be mounted in an artificial satellite. In particular, the primary radiator is designed to prevent an electrical charge caused by charged particles in a space environment. In the conventional type of radiator, there typically has been no arrangement for preventing such electrical charge which may cause a short-circuited condition resulting in providing noise or communication difficulties. In order to prevent this electrical charging, a fine metallic conductor is passed from the central part of a sub-reflector through an axial central part where an influence for the electromagnetic field is minimal within the circular waveguide constituting the primary radiator. The conductor is then connected to ground in a DC form at a rectangular and circular converter of the primary radiator.
