Abstract
-A planar (two-dimensional) reactively steered adaptive array (RESAA) including a single active microstrip element and eight closely coupled parasitic microstrip elements has been designed and tested. Steering of a null toward a single incident jammer is accomplished by adaptive control of reactive terminations on the parasitic elements using a guided random search algorithm. The planar array can steer a null in both the elevation and azimuth directions with a depth of 30 dB.
