| contents | This paper proposes a wideband dual-polarized phased array with ultra-wideband scattering cross section (SCS) reduction. The antenna elements are loaded on a bilateral stepped ground. This ground is carefully designed in terms of height difference, step number, and length to achieve phase cancellation near the normal direction. Wideband dipoles with vertical electric coupling are designed. The radiation frequency band covers the X-band (40%) under VSWR < 2.8. Array patterns are synthesized with the two subarrays, covering the scanning range from -45 to +45 degrees. The monostatic SCSs of the proposed 17 x 8 array prototype have been reduced within 3.6 - 30 GHz, with an averaged reduction of over 19.4/18.9 dB and an averaged in-band reduction of over 15.4/16.6 dB, under the normal x/y polarized incident waves respectively. |
