Abstract:
A Tapered Slot Antenna Cylindrical Array (NC#97194). The apparatus includes a base and a tapered slot antenna array. The base is capable of retaining a plurality of tapered slot antenna pairs. The tapered slot antenna array is operatively coupled to the base in a cylindrical configuration. The tapered slot antenna array comprises at least two tapered slot antenna pairs. Each tapered slot antenna pair of the at least two tapered slot antenna pairs is capable of operating independently of or in conjunction with other tapered slot antenna pairs of the at least two tapered slot antenna pairs to enable direction finding, acquisition, communication and electronic attack capabilities.
