High-performance active arrays operating over C, X, and Ku-band have been demonstrated using newly developed designs of wide-band radiating elements and wide-band monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs). The advanced shared aperture program (ASAP) explored the development of wide-band multifunction arrays capable of simultaneous and time interleaved radar, electronic warfare, and communications functions. Two iterations of radiating element and transmit/receive (T/R) module design were completed during this program. The radiating aperture design approach, overall array concepts, and current design technology and performance are summarized.
