A multi-company research effort has converted an AN/APG-77 active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar into a communications system. While maintaining the radar’s sensor capabilities, engineers ...

The current network of weather radars in the United States was installed in the late 1980s and into the 1990s. There are nearly 160 weather radars in the network. The radars are the NEXRAD WSR-88D ...

A company that seeks to disrupt the way in which data from space is received and transmitted has found some key investors and customers.

The term “phased array” has been around for a long time, but in recent years we’ve heard more and more about the beam shaping that’s possible with phased array antennae. In the video below the break, ...

InDyne Inc., Sterling, Virginia, has been awarded a $417,799,124 firm-fixed-price contract for operations and maintenance of the Solid State Phased Array Radar System (SSPARS). The contract provides ...

Our friend [Hunter Scott] gave a talk at a past Supercon about phased array antennas. He mentioned he was looking for collaborators to create an antenna with the SiBeam SB9210 chip. This is a ...

The operation of ground stations and phased-array antennas. How SDRs are integrated into ground stations. Issues to be considered when incorporating SDRs into phased-array antennas. Examples of ...

Phased array technology is far from new. Phased-array antennas have been used for decades in a variety of military applications. Now, however, their use in 5G systems in the Band 2 frequency range is ...

This blog installment discusses common types of beamforming algorithms as well as a framework to develop and test your own beamformers. Phased-array systems have many advantages over single antennas.
