Abstract :
The self detection capabilities of an active patch antenna for Doppler detection is experimentally investigated under injection locking conditions. The results show a significant improvement in detection performance under certain operating conditions. Further, the possibility of using an injection locked FET active patch antenna for PM(PSK) signal detection is investigated
