Abstract :
This paper presents a prototype of millimeter-wave multiple-beam phased array for limited scan on geosynchronous communication satellites. Major design considerations are put on the reduction of system weight, volume and power consumption, while maintaining the electric performance. Measurement results are provided for validation of the design.
