Abstract
A reconfigurable antenna array includes a plurality of emitting antennas, a plurality of drive inputs corresponding to respective emitting antennas of the plurality of emitting antennas and configured to receive drive signals for the respective emitting antennas, a plurality of controllable components that are controllable to perform space-wave phase shifting on radiation emitted by the plurality of emitting antennas, and a plurality of control inputs corresponding to the plurality of controllable components, the plurality of control inputs arranged to receive control signals for the plurality of controllable components. Control circuitry has outputs coupled to the plurality of control inputs is configured to deliver the control signals to the plurality of controllable components to cause the plurality of controllable components to space-wave phase shift the radiation emitted by the plurality of emitting antennas, causing the reconfigurable antenna array to emit a beam having an intensity peak in a target direction.
