Plural beam antenna

An antenna capable of deriving several beams about a single boresight axis including a focusing means, such as a parabolic reflector or a lens is described. Plural arrays, each including plural radially aligned antenna elements extending from the boresight axis, are located in proximity to a focal point for the focusing means. The elements of the plural arrays are independently excited as each of the arrays is independently rotated about the boresignt axis.
