Title :
The AN/TPS-59 Antenna Row-Board Design
Abstract :
The development model of the AN/TPS-59, an advanced tactical air-defense RADAR, employs a planar array composed of a vertical stack of linear row-arrays. Azimuth scanning is by mechanical rotation of the antenna while phase controlled solid-state row-transmitters and row-receivers provide electronic scanning in elevation.
