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, ...

An NPA, resembling its radiofrequency counterpart, consists of several typically identical optical antennas. Each antenna emits light of a specific amplitude and phase to form a desired far-field ...

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 ...

This blog discusses several challenges behind developing mmWave radar systems for the next generation of smart cars and trucks and looks at new capabilities recently added to electronic design ...

The SBX, shown here on a cargo vessel in Texas, practiced two days of "weather avoidance" when Hurricane Emily arrived in the Gulf of Mexico during 2005 testing. The range of the array inside the dome ...

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 ...
