Summary
This paper reports on the development and evaluation of a low-profile, scalable 16-element active electronically scanned array antenna prototype designed by Japan's National Institute of Information and Communications Technology for in-flight broadband connectivity on regional aircraft. The study presents performance results from a fundamental receiver-side configuration evaluation of the Ka-band antenna system. The work contributes to enabling high-speed internet access for passengers on regional jets through advanced antenna technology.
UK applicability
This is an electronics and telecommunications engineering study with no direct applicability to UK food systems, soil health, nutrient density, or agricultural research. It falls outside the scope of Vitagri's Pulse Brain catalogue.
Key measures
AESA antenna performance characteristics, receiver configuration parameters, Ka-band operation metrics
Outcomes reported
The study evaluated a prototype 16-element active electronically scanned array (AESA) antenna operating in Ka-band for aircraft receiver applications. Performance metrics of the fabricated antenna prototype were assessed to inform receiver-side configuration design.
