ABSTRACT:
A multiple layer dipole array that provides for a multi-frequency band phased array antenna. Several layers of dipole pair arrays, each tuned to a different frequency band, are stacked relative to each other along the transmission/reception direction. The highest frequency array is in front of the next lowest frequency array and so forth. Due to the frequency selective property of the arrays, incident high frequency signals are completely absorbed by the highest frequency array. In regard to incident low frequency signals, the insertion loss due to higher frequency arrays is small resulting in good performance of the lower frequency arrays. The multi-frequency band phased array antenna may use active or driven dipole pairs, or parasitic elements that form the multiple layer dipoles. The multiple layer dipole array of the present invention may employ corporate feed circuit boards and a corporate feed power divider, using strip transmission line circuits, for example. The multiple layer dipole phased array of the present invention may also employ a feed-through lens arrangement to simplify the feed network.
