Abstract
A wide-band fiber-optic true-time-delay array receiver capable of rece iving multiple independent beams simultaneously is demonstrated for th e first time. The receiver is based on a dispersive prism technique an d exhibits squint-free +/-60 degrees azimuthal steering of two simulta neous beams with no observable beam squint over a microwave component- limited bandwidth of 6-18 GHz.
