  • 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 60\\deg half-angle cone over a 16-percent bandwidth. The accuracy of this computation has been verified by simulator measurements.
