Abstract

To solve the serious loss problem for central energy of the Cassegrain antenna, this paper designs a beam-shaping system, named E-A system, to convert the elliptical divergent beam with astigmatism from a laser diode into an annular collimation beam. This E-A system, comprised only of lenses with quadratic surfaces, can simultaneously realize four functions, i.e., aberration correction, beam circularization, beam collimation, and dark hollow beam generation. By adjusting the parameters, the E-A system can be used to shape elliptical astigmatic beams with different parameters. Further, the E-A system can maintain good performance at wavelengths from 500 to 1647 nm. After considering various practical factors, the transmission efficiency of the entire transmitting system can be increased to 93.91% at a wavelength of 1550 nm.
