Method and apparatus for receiving dual band signals from an orbital location using an outdoor unit with a concentric antenna feed

A satellite system having a first satellite at a first orbital slot B has a first transponder and a second generating a first downlink signal B at a first frequency and a second downlink signal C at a second frequency. An outdoor unit is directed toward the first satellite and includes a support str...

Zusammenfassung:A satellite system having a first satellite at a first orbital slot B has a first transponder and a second generating a first downlink signal B at a first frequency and a second downlink signal C at a second frequency. An outdoor unit is directed toward the first satellite and includes a support structure, a reflector coupled to the support structure and reflecting the first downlink signal and the second downlink signal. A first feed B is coupled to the support structure and receives the first downlink signal. A second feed C is concentric with the first feed B and is coupled to the support structure and receives the second downlink signal.
