Abstract :
The Risley Prism antenna is a steerable beam antenna that is light weight, compact, conformal if desired and can be used on a wide variety of platforms. Small mobile platforms have limited real estate and this antenna technology is a viable solution. Some potential applications include UAV´s, Humvee´s and other ground mobile vehicles as well as larger platforms such as ships.
