ILEUM

Submillimetre-Wavelength Telescopes, Large Millimeter/submm Array), consisting of more than 60 antennas located at 5000 m altitude in northern Chile and covering the entire frequency range from 30 to 950?GHz. It began operation with a partial array in 2008 and construction was completed in 2014.

Electromagnetic Aspects of the Reflector Antenna,aracteristics of even the largest radio telescope reflector cannot be properly described by geometrical optics only, as is usual for optical telescopes. A wave-based EM diffraction analysis is required to derive the parameters of the antenna: in particular its beam shape with sidelobes, polarisation state, gain and beam efficiency.

Introduction,gested using a paraboloidal reflector as an astronomical telescope. Much later, in 1888 Hertz (1857–1894) selected a cylindrical paraboloid to demonstrate the existence of electromagnetic waves at radio wavelengths. In the twentieth century, the paraboloidal reflector played a dominant role in the b
