A reflector illuminated by a small phased array is an attractive antenna configuration for systems requiring reconfigurable contoured beams. The use of a shaped reflector can provide control of the feed power distribution and antenna geometry. A systematic reflector synthesis technique based on geometric optics is formulated, using complex coordinate notation and illustrated by application to a simple design requirement. Results demonstrate that geometric shaping can be successfully applied to systems with distributed sources, and that significant beam reconfiguration can be achieved by phase-only control of the feed array
