With weapons and communications systems increasingly relying on connectivity and signal communications, the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) is looking to develop phased array antennas that are light-weight and jam resistant for the next generation of systems.
The NRL is working with the Tactical Reachback Extended Communications to develop an ultra-wideband phased array antenna with extended line-of-sight (LOS) communications capabilities. LOS technology is able to support wide bandwidth frequency transmissions, which are often capable of avoiding any jamming or interference attempts.
