Until recently phased array radar has been very expensive, used only for military applications where the cost of survival weighs in the balance. With the advent of low-cost microwave devices and ...

Doppler radar is an important tool meteorologists use to track where thunderstorms are occurring, how intense they are, and where they are moving. WSR-88D, the current radar that became operational in ...

There have been important technological advancements made in the nondestructive testing (NDT) industry with total focusing method (TFM) capable inspection devices becoming more common. In terms of ...

Phased array antenna systems are at the cusp of ubiquity. We now see Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna systems on WiFi routers. Soon phased array weather radar systems will help to predict ...

Echodyne has developed a family of palm-sized metamaterial electronically-scanning array (MESA) radars for missions such as counter-unmanned aerial system (C-UAS), special event security, and UAS ...

Austenitic welds and welds that contain heterogenous weld materials are increasingly used in various industries. These welds can be used to manufacture components with enhanced or custom-engineered ...

Phased array technology is far from new. Phased-array antennas have been used for decades in a variety of military applications. Now, however, their use in 5G systems in the Band 2 frequency range is ...

The SBX, shown here on a cargo vessel in Texas, practiced two days of "weather avoidance" when Hurricane Emily arrived in the Gulf of Mexico during 2005 testing. The range of the array inside the dome ...

Researchers from Southeast University in China have developed a compact, dual-band, dual-polarized, duplex (D³) phased array architecture that integrates four independent beamforming systems on a ...
