Development of reconfigurable antennas is desired by the aerospace, automotive, and communications industries. Current designs utilize a set of radiating elements connected to a transmission line with embedded amplitude and phase shift elements. An alternative technique is to use antenna modules w…

Previously, it was necessary to have three separate parabolic dish antennas, each with positioning equipment, to receive signals from three different satellites. In order to make these multiple independent contacts, communications arrays grow quickly in size with increased costs for each addition.…
