Abstract
In satellite earth station antenna systems there is an increasing demand for complex single aperture, multi-function and multi-frequency band capable feed systems. In this work, a multi band feed system (6/12 GHz) is described which employs quadrature junctions (QJ) and supports transmit and receive functionality in the C and Ku bands respectively. This feed system is designed for a 16.4 m diameter shaped cassegrain antenna. It is a single aperture, 4 port system with transmit capability in circular polarization (CP) mode over the 6.625-6.69 GHz band and receive in the linear polarization (LP) mode over the 12.1-12.3 GHz band
