Zusammenfassung:A phased-array antenna with electronic beam steering that provide simultaneous operation at transmit and receive frequencies and polarization control is disclosed. The antenna architecture reduces the number of beam steering and polarization control devices used compared to conventional array designs. The extremely compact, low-loss, and largely passive design reduces the number of active amplifiers needed using micro-electromechanical systems MEMs and advanced micro-coaxial circuits.
