Various arrangements of transmit and receive shared-aperture array antenna systems are presented herein. The arrangements can include an antenna that includes: a planar substrate; a first row of a first plurality of transmit patches arranged on the planar substrate; a second row of a plurality of receive patches arranged on the planar substrate; and a third row of a second plurality of transmit patches arranged on the planar substrate. The first row, second row, and third row can be parallel and the second row can be between the first row and the third row.

Shared transmit and receive aperture linear array

An integral waveguide device herein includes a polarizer component comprising a waveguide and a dielectric slab, the dielectric slab configured to change a polarization of a signal passing through the waveguide. The integral waveguide device also includes a feed horn for conveying signals between the waveguide and a parabolic antenna. The waveguide of the polarizer and the feed horn are manufactured as an integral component with the feed horn disposed at a first end of the waveguide.
