Abstract
A phase-retrieval method is applied to the quasioptical feed system of the offset Cassegrain antenna of the Superconducting Submillimeter-Wave Limb-Emission Sounder (JEM/SMILES) to be aboard the International Space Station for evaluating the beam alignment by estimating the phase pattern from the beam amplitude pattern measurements. As the result, the application of the phase retrieval method is demonstrated to be effective for measuring and evaluating the quasioptical antenna feed system. It is also demonstrated that the far-field radiation pattern of the antenna main reflector can be estimated from the phase-retrieved beam pattern of the feed system.
