ABSTRACT:
A phased array antenna may include a substrate and an array of antenna elements carried thereby, and the antenna elements may be arranged along an imaginary spiral. The antenna may further include at least one control element connected to each antenna element, and at least one controller serially communicating with the control elements so that updated control data for beam steering is sequentially implemented by the control elements to thereby cause a gradual change in beam steering.
