ONERA Array Antenna Development in the CROWN Project: A Demonstrator for enhanced EM Multifunction Systems Operating at 6-18 GHz

This paper provides an overview of the bipolarization array antenna development led by ONERA within the European CROWN project, with a specific focus on the design and implementation of a demonstrator unit. Furthermore, it presents measurement results to demonstrate the efficiency of the developed antenna system. It is shown that the bipolarization array antenna demonstrator exhibits a 6-18 GHz large bandwidth and a 60° scanning capability.
