Abstract
An unitary one-piece construction feed for a high frequency band antenna, the feed including: a feed horn; and a polarizer comprising a void and multiple sets of ridges disposed in the void, wherein the polarizer is in direct contact with the feed horn and the unitary one-piece construction feed is capable of operating with a carrier signal ranging across one or two consecutive bands selected from Ku, K, Ka and Q bands, for example, from 17.3 GHz to 31 GHz.

A unitary one-piece construction feed for a band antenna, the feed comprising:
- a feed horn;
- and
- a polarizer comprising a void and multiple sets of ridges disposed in the void,
- wherein the feed horn and the polarizer are integrally formed as a seamless monolithic diecast unibody formed in a single metal shot without an assembly interface therebetween, and the unitary one-piece construction feed is capable of operating with a carrier signal ranging across one or two consecutive bands selected from Ku, K, Ka and Q bands.
