Project Image Antenna Technologies for 3D Imaging, Wide Swath Radar Supporting ACE

• Develop a novel shared aperture Ka/W band reflector/
reflectarray and Ka-band Active Electronically Scanned
Array (AESA) feed technologies for ACE radar.
• Demonstrate subscale reflector/reflectarray antenna
with GSFC’s Cloud Radar System (CRS) in a suborbital
flight.
• This antenna would provide advanced 3D cloud
imaging capability for the ACE mission with
enabling of wide swath electronic.
