Abstract :
Four signal distribution approaches are identified for their applicability to active phased array antennas: planar substrate, radial power combiners, standard waveguide, and reduced waveguide. Though test data were recorded at K-band, these concepts can be employed at millimeter-wave frequencies.<>
