✦ Synopsis
In this paper, a very compact 16-element digital beamforming (DBF) receiver-array module operating in the Ka-band is demonstrated for the first time. The active microwave circuitry is outlined and, following this framework, challenging electronics-integration aspects are discussed in detail. The first measurement results of the module performance are included.
