Abstract:Retro‐directive antenna arrays are capable to reflect back an incoming signal in source direction just like corner reflectors. Retro‐directive antenna arrays do not use complex and expensive phase shifters or smart antennas to steer their beam. These arrays steer beam autonomously in source direction by reversing progressive phase induced by incident signal. Two basic designs of retro‐directive antenna array are Van Atta array and Phase Conjugating array. A simplified design for phase conjugating array is prop… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
