Research abstract

In this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project, we propose to design, develop, fabricate and test a power-scalable C-band active phased array system for installation on unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) platforms. The proposed phased array can be used as a compact, low-cost, but high-performance, directional antenna with electronic beam steering capability to establish tactical common data links among aerial, seaborne and ground-based assets. The proposed architecture will be based on EMAG Technologies' proven and patented vertically integrated scalable antenna tile (VISAT) technology.
