Phased array antenna systems are at the cusp of ubiquity. We now see Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna systems on WiFi routers. Soon phased array weather radar systems will help to predict ...

The shape of an antenna’s front end dictates many of its operating parameters. Once it’s manufactured, those characteristics are locked in. A shape-changing antenna would enable communications across ...

In Part 1, we introduced the phased array concept, beam steering and array gain. In Part 2, we presented the concept of grating lobes and beam squint. In this section, we begin with a discussion of ...

To deliver the next generation of satellite applications, spacecraft are increasingly using phased arrays to combine multiple individual antenna elements to improve overall performance, increase gain, ...

Peter Delos, Technical Lead, Bob Broughton, Director of Engineering and Jon Kraft, Senior Staff Field Applications Engineer, all with Analog Devices. With the proliferation of digital phased arrays in ...

In the realm of modern satellite communication, SpaceX's Starlink system stands out for its innovative use of phased array antenna technology. This advanced technology is the backbone of Starlink's ...

Phased array technology is far from new. Phased-array antennas have been used for decades in a variety of military applications. Now, however, their use in 5G systems in the Band 2 frequency range is ...

The Defense Innovation Unit has awarded at least two contracts to build prototype phased array antennas which are capable of connecting with multiple satellites simultaneously. (Lockheed Martin image) ...
