Phased array systems and technologies in SELEX-Sistemi Integrati: State of art and new challenges

This paper is a follow-on of [1] and [2], presented at 1996 and 2003 IEEE Intl. Symposium on Phased Array Systems and Technology, respectively. After a brief recall of 3D Long Range phased array concepts, already presented in [2], the focus is on the G-band multifunction radar systems and on the technological capabilities that SELEX-Sistemi Integrati is developing by taking advantage of its Research and Development facilities. At the end, future trends about new challenging applications and technological issues are presented and discussed.
