Problem 4. We need to allocate requirements to a parabolic antenna gimbal system and spacecraft. Our aperture size is 1 meter in diameter and transmission frequency is 5 GHz. We need to maintain pointing loss to < 0.5 dB. a. What is the ideal gain, at peak of beam, for the antenna at the given frequency? b. What is the beam width in degrees, using the equation given in class? c. What is the maximum allowed pointing error to not exceed the pointing loss?
