Abstract :
The paper describes a monopulse two-dimensional antenna array with dipoles printed on a dielectric substrate. The monopulse comparator is integrated at the horizontal feeding network. The antenna array operates in S-band with a beam-width of 2.2 degrees in the H-plane and 15 degrees in the E-plane. The obtained gain is more than 28 dB.
