LTCC based planar modules for X-band aesa

摘要

It is shown that it is possible to develop LTCC based multichannel integrated planar receiver modules (clusters) for any size X-band AESA. For this purpose LTCC based planar submodules with an integrated patch antenna was developed. It is a clearly seen that LTCC technology helps to make cheap, small, lightweight and ruggedized planar and conformal AESA.
