It is proposed to develop an array feed with amplitude and phase control, which can mitigate the compact antenna test range reflectors edge diffraction, creating desired plane waves with minimal field taper and ripples for antenna testing. The amplitud...

Phase II

Contract Number: FA8650-18-C-1731
Start Date: 9/24/2018    Completed: 9/24/2020
Phase II year
2018
Phase II Amount
$749,957
It is proposed to develop an array feed with amplitude and phase control, which can mitigate the compact antenna test range reflector's edge diffraction, creating desired plane waves with minimal field taper and ripples for antenna testing. The amplitude/phase control will be electrically controlled, allowing on-the-fly frequency swept, or programmable, operation.
