Abstract

A systematic procedure for matching the active element impedance over a wide scan angle for a wide band of frequencies is given. The application of this procedure is illustrated in a dual-polarization array designed to scan a <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">60\deg</tex> half-angle cone over a 16-percent bandwidth. The accuracy of this computation has been verified by simulator measurements.
