Abstract
We investigate the fields produced by electrodynamic models of mirror-antenna radiators with reflectors in the shape of a disk or a disk with a scattering projection. The analysis is based on a numerical method which reduces the problem to integrodifferential equations and then solves them by computer. We consider the amplitude and phase structure of the field of an ideally conducting disk excited by a rectangular slit and an elementary oscillator perpendicular to the disk axis. We also consider the phase structure of the field of a reflector in the shape of a disk with a conical projection excited by an elementary oscillator.
