ASAR
(Advanced
Synthetic Aperture Radar)
ASAR
transmit tile
ASAR Transmit tile ready for
radiation testing. The ASAR antenna is composed of 20 such tiles, each
tile is composed of 16 horizontal radiating rows, each connected to a
transmit/receive module. Therefore the ASAR antenna operates with 320
transmit/receive modules controlled in amplitude and phase to provide
the ASAR electronic steered beam
