Scanning Measurements

 

6 x 1 MESFET Array Prototype with patch antennas

4GHz optimum efficiency oscillator design (43% DC-to-RF conversion)

Results:

bullet

Continuous scanning from -40 degrees to +40 degrees off broadside

bullet

accomplished by adjusting end-element frequencies (drain bias)

Excellent correlation with theory
