  • Abstract
    This paper presents first results of experimental amplitude comparison monopulse direction finder for harmonic radar. Aperture coupled patch antenna arrays are used for operation in 1.5 GHz band with 10% operation bandwidth. Antennas with leaf characteristic enable 50° sector of operation in azimuth. Problems with common (circular) polarisation are discussed.
