A multibeam satellite reflector antenna to provide contiguous multibeam coverage of Saudi Arabia is analized. The satellite utilizes 12 beams each of 10 cell size. Three overlapping beams were formed, which comply with the ITU requirements. Composite coverage patterns are computed, projected on a map.
