## Abstract A flexible continuous optical beamformer with time delay for a phased‐array antenna is proposed and demonstrated. It is constructed using a novel tunable chirped fiber grating achieved by bending a uniform grating, and a multi‐wavelength fiber laser based on a novel Sagnac interferemetr

Self-calibration of a phased antenna array is required when distortions in the array are not known a priori and cannot be measured, or when turbulence in the propagation medium perturbs the radiation field. Two types of self-calibration procedures are discussed that have proved successful in experim

A four-channel array of rf modulated laser signals was generated in a LiNbO optical wa¨eguide network by heterodyne mixing 3 of two input lightwa¨es. Independent control of the rf phase in each channel was pro¨ided by integrated optical phase shifters. An optical frequency shifter was demonstrated t

Problems arise in providing excitation phases and amplitudes to individual antenna elements for wide-angle scanning by applying spherical array antennas for mobile satellite communications for ships, automobiles, and aircraft. These antennas do not have many antenna elements. Thus, emphasis is on ob
