  • Abstract
    The implementation of new antenna techniques will contribute significantly to the success of air traffic control (ATC) and communication development programs. Three new antenna developments that incorporate advanced techniques are described, including an electronically scanned array for air traffic control radar beacon system (ATCRBS), a hybrid-scan array for aircraft/satellite communications at SHF, and a small antenna for aircraft/satellite communications at UHF.
