ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an antenna system which is capable of producing multiple, high-gain, independently steerable antenna beams from a single antenna aperture. The system accomplishes this, in part, by utilizing a separate phased array antenna as the feed element of a spherical lens for each desired beam. In this fashion, the beam(s) produced by the antenna system can each be electronically steered (independently of the other beams, if any) and physical movement of the feed element(s) is not required. The invention may also use multiple spherical lenses, wherein each lens includes at least one phased array feed.
