Abstract

The paper provides a short overview on recent ESA developments on array antenna architectures for satellite antennas generating a multiple spot beams coverage with a single aperture. In particular, solutions based on direct radiating arrays, discrete lens arrays, and arrays magnified by confocal reflectors will be discussed. ESA is supporting since several years activities in this challenging domain.
