We review our progress in the demonstration of photonically controlled phased arrays. In particular, we emphasize the impact made by photonic phased arrays steered via true-time-delay. We describe, in addition, a photonic beamforming architecture that combines RF-heterodyning with a Rotman lens feed for multiple beam formation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
