TWO-DIMENSIONAL SELF-FOCUSING ARRAY ANTENNA MODEL.
Abstract
A report is given on an experimental program on the performance of a two-dimensional self-focusing antenna. The design of the 64 element, 75 by 75 wavelength X-band model is described together with the methods and equipment used in acquiring the test data. The extensive results obtained are summarized and evaluated with respect to estimated performances. The experimental program included a study of the relationship of target configurations and array antenna element arrangements to the operating characteristics of the self-focusing array. A brief study of the scattering from metal spheres in the presence of a converging wavefront was also conducted. The measured results of the program are presented in the form of radiated field patterns. (Author)
