Abstract :
The Holography-based Phased-Array Antenna enhances the performance of RF sensor & Communication Systems to a new horizon. Typical applications range from concealed weapon detection to advanced RF communication. The Holography-based Phased-Array Antenna is capable of extended and multiple field-of-view communication; hence result in substantial improvement in S/N &G/T performance. As the RF scattering profiles significantly depend on aspect angles and polarizations, the use of multiple polarizations also increases the degrees of freedom in Holography-based Phased-Array Antenna for wide-area RF communication.
