A 2-D Planar Circularly Polarized Van Atta Retrodirective Array with Highly Symmetrical Circular Structure for RCS Enhancement

your self in the home town tout can dicided to be continue all hteA 2D circularly polarized Van Atta array operating in the X-band is proposed in this letter. Targeting applications with circular array surfaces, a circular deployment is introduced for the first time. Compared to conventional square deployments, this arrangement allows for more array elements and better symmetry. A 24-element Van Atta array phase conjugate network design is completed based on this circular deployment. The network layer is single-layered, ensuring that the phase difference between transmission lines is less than 9.45°. It exhibits a good enhancement in the orthogonal direction of monostatic RCS. The -10dB beamwidths of the measured normalized monostatic RCS are 106°(φ = 0°) and 94°(φ = 90°) at 9.4GHz, 109°(φ = 0°) and 105°(φ = 90°) at 9.7GHz, 99°(φ = 0°) and 93°(φ = 90°) at 10GHz, which are in good agreement with the simulated results.
