A dipole feed for a paraboloidal reflector antenna uses a conical reflector to direct the radiation of the dipole towards the concave reflecting surface of the parabola. The size and apex angle of the conical reflector are optimized to yield the desired feed pattern, the optimization parameters depending on the reflector size and focal length and being obtained numerically or experimentally to maximize reflector gain.
