The invention discloses a composite feed source parabolic cylinder antenna and a detection
satellite. Wherein the composite feed source parabolic cylinder antenna comprises a bias parabolic cylinder antenna, a composite feed source array and a parabolic cylinder supporting part; the parabolic cylinder supporting part is used for supporting the bias parabolic cylinder antenna, the composite feed source array comprises a
phased array feed source, a sparse feed source array and a feed source mounting plate, and the
phased array feed source and the sparse feed source array are arranged on the feedsource mounting plate; the
phase center of each feed source in the sparse feed source array is arranged on a
focal line of the offset parabolic cylinder antenna, the array direction of the
phased array feed source is parallel to the
focal line and is arranged in an offset-focus manner, and the feed source aperture surface of the
phased array feed source is aligned with the feed source aperture surface of the sparse feed source array. By adopting the double-row feed source array and sharing the parabolic cylinder antenna, a one-dimensional scannable high-
gain narrow wave beam and a plurality of elliptical wave beams which are consistent in direction and similar in shape can be formed, the
integrated design of the antenna is realized, and the antenna has the technical characteristics of light weight, low cost and high detection precision.
