چکیده
This article presents the prototype of an electronically steerable receive-only array antenna realised within the ESA-project NATALIA. This project is funded under contract number 18612/04/NL/US. The antenna is conceived for the reception of mobile satellite services in Ku-band and its design targets the market of automotive applications. The design of the prototype is based on an innovative polarisation agile phased array concept and exhibits an excellent RF-performance as well as a very compact envelope.
