Abstract
We introduce and discuss a new approach to the phase retrieval of fields radiated by continuous aperture sources having a circular support, which is of interest in many applications including the detection of shape deformations on reflector antennas. The approach is based on a decomposition of the actual 2-D problem into a number of 1-D phase retrieval problems along diameters and concentric rings of the visible part of the spectrum. In particular, the 1-D problems are effectively solved by using the spectral factorization method, while discrimination arguments at the crossing points allows to complete the retrieval of the 2-D complex field. The proposed procedure, which just requires a single set of far field amplitudes, takes advantage from up to now unexplored field properties and it is assessed in terms of reflector aperture fields.
