This paper presents the parametric design and analysis of multiple-beam reflector-antenna systems employed for satellite communications. It is based on extending earlier work Rao (see IEEE Antennas Propagation Magazine, vol.41, no.4, p.53-59,1999) by taking into account efficiency horn pointing error in antennas (MBAs), analyzing edge-of-coverage directivity co-polar isolation (C/I) performance.
