Abstract :
The overview covers different types of microwave antennas, such as twist-Cassegrain antennas, shaped-reflector antennas, microstrip antennas, dichroic surfaces, slotted-waveguide-array antennas, omnidirectional antennas, and electronically steered-array antennas. Measurement methods, such as near-field and diagnostic techniques, are discussed. The applications are for radar and microwave communication systems, for use in ground, naval, airborne, and space environments.<>
