Abstract

An active receiving antenna for Radio Navigation and Radio Positioning applications in S-band frequency is designed and fabricated. In this active antenna, the amplifier is integrated with the radiator which is a rectangular patch antenna. This patch antenna is analyzed with full-wave momentum method. With the developed design routine, ultra-low noise active receiving antenna can be realized. The ADS software and its full-wave Momentum is used for simulation. The experimental results show good agreement with the simulation results.
