Purpose
This development project will address key issues encountered with conventional electronic beamforming networks (BFN) used in space based Radio-Frequency (RF) phased array antennas. Those antennas are gaining in popularity thanks to the recent plans for low cost, large, Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellation projects. Large bandwidth performances are thus expected to be much improved over the wide scan angles needed for operations in LEO. This feasibility study will evaluate a concept for a large scale true time delay optical beamforming for RF phased arrays.
