2D projection of the power beam pattern (θ is the zenith angle and ϕ the azimuth) showing the separation between the primary-lobe region ΩPL (inner dashed circle) and the side-lobe region ΩSL (grey ring) with a generic beam pattern pointing at zenith. The angle θ1stnull,min (Eq. (4)) separates the two regions. The exceeding part of this asymmetric primary lobe is considered in the ΩSL region. The black ellipse represents the primary lobe above −3 dB and the ellipse parameters FWHM and AR are defined in the inset box.
