In this paper, we propose a Axially displaced ellipse gregorian antenna with conical feed horn operating in Ku-band. For fast searching satellite position, it is designed the sub-reflector rotates about $1.5^{\circ}$ tilted by the central axis. the curvature and feed center of the main-reflector and sub-reflector are optimized to achieve maximum antenna efficiency. The designed reflector antenna shows the gain of 33dB and the cross polarization level of less than -21dB and the side-lobe level of less than －14 dB at 12.2 GHz. and C/N ratio of 19dB is proved by reception experiment of Koreasat with fabricated antenna.

This paper discusses the singly curved phased reflector for reduced RCS pattern, which has minimized RCS level at boresight with a null by phase cancelation and the lowered RCS level of main beam by splitting the main beam into multi directions. Considering the reduced level of boresight and main beam compared to the same sized reference PEC, this proposed multi-beam reflector can be adopted in the mono-static radar and the bi-static radar environment. The proposed reflector is a multi-beam reflector, which has different phase distributions at each row for different steering angle. It is designed through an intermediate stage of a single and dual-beam reflector. The behaviors of the designed reflectors are verified through full-wave simulation and experiment. The reflectors are designed in the frequency of 10 GHz and it has a size $240{\times}180mm^2$($8{\times}6\;{\lambda}^2$) with the curvature k=3.3. From the measured results, the proposed reflectors reduce the reflected power by 17 dB at boresight.
