Abstract :
We are developing a digital beamforming (DBF) antenna in the 20/30 GHz bands that have not been officially allocated yet and are selected as an example. This paper focuses upon the 20/30 GHz band DBF antenna under development. Requirements for the onboard antenna for SPF and the basic characteristics of the DBF antenna are presented
