A parabolic torus reflector antenna is a quasi-parabolic antenna, where the defining parabola is not rotated around the main transmission axis, but around an axis which stands vertically to this axis.
Simulsat is a trademark for such antennas designed and manufactured by Antenna Technology Communications.
