Mitigation of Mutual Antenna Coupling Effects for Active Radar Targets in L-Band

In order to realize a compact L-band transponder design for the calibration of spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems, a novel antenna was developed by DLR. As with previous designs for different frequency bands, the future transponder is based on a two-antenna concept. This paper address...
