A reflector antenna device includes: an auxiliary reflector 1 that receives an electric wave radiated from an opening portion by a primary radiator 3 and reflects the electric wave; and a main reflector 2 that receives the electric wave that is reflected by the auxiliary reflector 1 and radiates the electric wave to a space. In the reflector antenna device, the configurations of the auxiliary reflector 1 and the main reflector 2 are designed such that an electric power in an area of the main reflector 2 where the auxiliary reflector 1 is projected on the main reflector 2 in parallel with the radiating direction of the electric wave due to the main reflector 2 is equal 1 or lower than a predetermined first threshold value, and a radiation pattern of the antenna which is determined by the area of the main reflector 2 other than the area has a desired characteristic.

In order to provide a reflector antenna apparatus which can be installed within a small space, which has adequate practicality, and which can perform scanning by pivoting about two axes which are perpendicular to each other, in a reflector antenna apparatus having a Cassegrain reflector and a rotating mechanism which rotates the reflector about an azimuth axis and an elevation axis, a reflector with a substantially rectangular aperture has its elevation axis passing through substantially the central portion of the height dimension of the reflector, and reflector surface adjustment is carried out such that substantially all of the electromagnetic waves which are supplied are received and reflected, whereby the antenna height does not become large when the reflector rotates about the elevation axis. The reflector may be an array of a plurality of reflector elements.

An antenna apparatus in which a combination of rectangular waveguides 9a and 10a and a combination of rectangular waveguides 9b and 10b are disposed bilateral symmetrically to each other, and a waveguide orthomode transducer 13 is disposed above a waveguide orthomode transducer 8 is provided. Therefore, the profile of the antenna apparatus can be reduced and the stability of installation of the antenna apparatus can be improved without impairing the electric characteristics of the antenna apparatus. Since the antenna apparatus has a bilateral symmetric structure, it excels in weight balance and offers stable performance from the viewpoint of mechanism.

A disk-shaped reflecting plate 3 for reflecting an electric wave emitted out of an aperture 1a of a circular waveguide 1 is placed a location which is just opposite to the aperture 1a of the circular waveguide 1, and a ring-shaped waveguide 4 for shaping the radiation characteristic of the electric wave reflected by the disk-shaped reflecting plate 3 to a rotational symmetrical radiation characteristic is disposed around the perimeter of the disk-shaped reflecting plate 3. Thereby, even when many grooves 4a need to be formed in order to make the electric wave have a rotational symmetrical radiation characteristic, it is not necessary to increase the size of the disk-shaped reflecting plate 3 in the direction of its radius.

A space photovoltaic generation system including a plurality of power satellites arranged in space, each of which converts electrical energy, into which sunlight has been photoelectric-converted, into a microwave, and transmits the microwave to an electric power base. The system can thus transmit a microwave of high power to the electric power base. Each of the plurality of power satellites modulates the generated microwave so as to generate an incoherent microwave before transmitting it to the electric power base, thus reducing the power density of the electric power transmitted to the electric power base on the earth and hence a loss in the total amount of energy transmitted to the electrical power base on the earth.
