Abstract: For high power microwave application, the offset parabolic antennas have advantages of lower side lobes, lower standing wave ratio, high efficiency and avoiding breakdown comparing with the center feed parent. Without any rotary RF joint in the high power microwave transmit system, the scan can be achieved by spinning the reflector around the axe of the feed and swinging the reflector and feed around the focus in the (x,z) plane by using a vacuum flexible elliptical waveguide. By geometric approach, the scan functions are presented. The scan properties are characterized with the maximum elevation angle range at a definite distance. The renations between the scan characteristics and the antenna geometric and spin-swing parameters are given for the antenna design. The spin-swing single offset parabolic antenna has small transmission loss and simpler mechanical scan construction.
