Active Antenna: “Design Challenges for High Performance Front End Applicationsâ€
Active antenna have been around since 1970. The first inventor was Prof. Meinke. After him, Prof. Lindenmeier optimized these intial Antenna which used bipolar transistor and were prone to large signal problems. Their frequency range also was limited to AM/FM radio applications. In this presentation, speaker will be discussing the use of power FETs as input stage and extending the frequency ranges into the microwave ranges using FAN antenna.
Such an antenna was developed jointly with the US Navy for use in ship boat in high power hostile environment. A thorough circuit discussion is included as a part of the presentation.
