In this paper design and realization of a dual reflector antenna for receiving internet signal in the point-to-point system is presented. Three different configurations of dual reflector antenna have been considered to obtain the antenna operating in 5.2-5.8 GHz band and having small dimensions. The results of computer simulations and measurements are shown. The design was based on electromagnetic simulations using QW-V2D package (an axisymmetrical version of finite-difference time-domain software). In measurements the method with a reference antenna was used. Additional discussion about using the main reflector of smaller diameter and decreasing spillover radiation was performed.
