Abstract

This article presents approximate formulas useful for computing antenna noise temperature contributions due to ohmic and leakage losses of a parabolic antenna reflector surface. The total noise temperature contributions due to ohmic and leakage losses for the DSS 14 64-m antenna were calculated to be 0.1, 0.3, and 0.6 K at 2.295, 8.448, and 15.3 GHz, respectively.
