At TICRA, we employ the best minds in the business. We also believe such experience and expertise should be shared, which is why we regularly produce papers and articles that explore some of the most important areas within our industry.
A new design approach and an associated software tool for conical corrugated horn antennas has been developed in a joint TICRA-Thales Alenia Space-ESA project. The software is developed such that it supports the user in designing an optimized horn antenna…
An accurate and efficient numerical model is developed to simulate the far field of an antenna under test (AUT) measured in a Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR), on the basis of the known quiet zone field and the theoretical aperture…
It is important to know the antenna patterns for the Planck Space Telescope with high accuracy for detectors operating at frequencies from 30 to 857 GHz. This could not be achieved with sufficient accuracy on ground as the working temperature…
An accurate and efficient numerical model is developed to simulate the far field of an antenna under test (AUT) measured in a Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR), on the basis of the known quiet zone field and the theoretical aperture…
Instruments for Earth observation working from WBand up to mm-wave frequencies mainly use quasi-optical feed systems (QOF) to illuminate the corresponding reflector antennas. The final design of the QOF for the Cloud Profiling Radar System (CPR) for the EarthCARE satellite…
