System concepts and technologies for high orbit SAR

Abstract

This paper discusses large aperture, high orbit radar concepts for measuring sub-centimeter-level surface displacements from space. We will explain the need for large aperture, high orbit arrays and will discuss the technologies required to achieve these missions.

Active membrane phased array radar

We have developed the first membrane-based active phased array in L-band (1.26GHz). The array uses membrane compatible Transmit/Receive (T/R) modules (membrane T/R) for each antenna element. We use phase shifters within each T/R module for electronic beam steering. We will discuss the T/R module design and integration with the membrane, We will also present transmit and receive beam-steering results for the array.
