A New Technique for Vernier Pointing of a Beam-Waveguide AntennaThis paper presents a new and simple approach for the Ka-band vernier pointing of a 34m beam-waveguide (BWG) antenna (also applicable to a 70m antenna. In this study, rotation of a BWG flat mirror, located at the elevation axis, is used to scan the beam instead of using the very large tipping structure of the antenna.
