Antenna arrays are paramount in modern communications, radar and aerospace systems, yet ensuring their optimal performance is challenged by the occurrence of faulty elements. Recent advances have ...

The operation of ground stations and phased-array antennas. How SDRs are integrated into ground stations. Issues to be considered when incorporating SDRs into phased-array antennas. Examples of ...

Evolving communication systems are driving developments in the RF/microwave industry. The large umbrella of 5G focuses on supporting three main technologies: enhanced mobile broadband, which is the ...

Why a reflective array offers benefits compared to active elements in a high-density array. How a binary phase-control scheme is used in place of conventional phasing for extremely low power, ...

In this article, I will cover various aspects of millimeter wave (mmW) beamforming and antenna technology with what I consider interesting and unique technical design examples. Beamforming networks ...

Spatial and temporal information of signals received from multiple antennas can be applied to mitigate the impact of new GPS and Galileo signals’ binary-offset sub-carrier, reducing multipath and ...

IT’S ALL PHYSICS. How things work, that is. Well, maybe a little chemistry too in some cases. But I might be a little biased in my opinion given that I’m an applied physicist by training. Radio?

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 ...
