Large reflectors have impairments such as mechanical complexity, low flexibility and high cost. Thus, the feasibility of other antenna technologies must be evaluated, such as conformal adaptive antennas based on multiple planar active arrays. In the scenery under study, the capability to track several satellites simultaneously, higher flexibility, lower production and maintenance cost, modularity and a more efficient use of the spectrum; are the most important advantage to boost up active antenna arrays over large dishes. date: 2013 date_type: published publisher: IEEE official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?arnumber=6546257 full_text_status: public pres_type: paper pagerange: 252-253 pages: 2 event_title: 7th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP) event_location: Gothenburg, Sweden event_dates: 08/04/2013 - 12/04/2013 event_type: conference institution: Telecomunicacion department: Senales refereed: TRUE book_title: 7th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP) rights: by-nc-nd citation: Noval Sánchez de Toca, Alvaro and Inclan Alonso, Jose Manuel and Garcia-Gasco Trujillo, Javier and Fernández González, José Manuel and Sierra Pérez, Manuel (2013).
