Method and apparatus for receiving dual band signals from a common orbital location with an outdoor unit using a frequency selective subreflector and additional antenna feed

An outdoor unit comprising:

• a support structure;
• a first reflector coupled to the support structure and reflecting a first downlink signal from a first satellite, said first reflector reflecting a second downlink signal from the first satellite;
• a first feed coupled to the support structure receiving the first downlink signal;
• a frequency selective surface coupled to the support structure reflecting the second downlink signal after the first reflector and passing the first downlink signal therethrough;
• a second feed coupled to support structure receiving the second downlink signal reflected from the frequency selective surface.

An outdoor unit comprising:

• a support structure;
• a first reflector coupled to the support structure and reflecting a first downlink signal from a first satellite along an axis, said first reflector reflecting a second downlink signal from the first satellite along the axis;
• a first feed coupled to the support structure along the axis receiving the first downlink signal;
• a second reflector having frequency selective surface coupled to the support structure intersecting the axis and reflecting the second downlink signal after the first reflector and passing the first downlink signal therethrough;
• a second feed coupled to support structure receiving the second downlink signal reflected from the frequency selective surface.
