Abstract
This paper presents the design, fabrication, and performance of a W-band amplitude-only azimuthal direction finding antenna subsystem, designed to cover 75–110 GHz. The design utilizes curved-aperture pyramidal horn antennas to achieve near frequency independent radiation patterns over the band of interest, and 2-element linear arrays to increase receiver detection range. Two arrays are squinted apart by 30° to realize a high slope and near monopulse direction finding function.
