Abstract
This paper presents the design, manufacture, and performance test results of a highly integrated tile-type transmit (Tx)-phased array antenna for Ku-band satellite communication, which comprises an RF/ANT board and four multi-layer boards. The electrical performance test of the antenna demonstrated a gain and beamwidth of 24 dBi and 12° at the center of the operating frequency in the Ku-band, respectively. Furthermore, the beam squint performance was less than 3° when the steering angles were 0° and 40° in the phi and theta directions, respectively. With the proposed tile-type antenna, a conformal phased array antenna can be produced for satellite communication in the Ku-band.
