Beamforming & Beamsteering Networks
ARS Products designs and manufacturers specialised phase and amplitude control sub-systems for RF signal manipulation. Our products can be used for individual feed manipulation (phase shifters or amplitude modulators), or at the beam culminating point (Beamformer).
Key Beamformer Differentiators
- Frequency Coverage – From fractional to multiple octave bandwidths
- Power Handling – From sensitive receive levels, to kilowatt transmit levels
- Architecture: Able to re-implement designs, changing between quadrature and sum/difference implementations
- Stripline, microstrip and high permeability materials such as ferrite and powdered iron
Dynamic Beamforming Applications
- Direction Finding with Spatial Signal Suppression
- Allows the user to change the pattern in real time
- Can also be used for transmission
