Abstract

A transmission/reception module suitable for use in electronically phase-controlled antennas for a synthetic aperture radar includes a circulator provided for each individual radiator element terminal to achieve vertical and horizontal polarization. A low-noise amplifier is connected to the circulator in the reception path. A high-power amplifier is connected to the circulator in the transmission path. The two separate polarization reception channels each include a low-noise amplifier. The two separate polarization transmission channels each include a high-power amplifier. The reception channels and transmission channels are respectively connected to a polarization change-over. Switching arms of the polarization change-over are then connected to either the reception contact or the transmission contact of the transmission/reception switch.
