Abstract

An electrically steerable directional antenna (ESDA) system in which antenna elements transmit and receive signals with phases obtained from a phase bank. The phases are controlled by an antenna controller. Some or all of the phases may be different. In some embodiments, the phase bank includes delay lines having respective lengths. Each delay line imposes a phase delay relative to its length on a signal passing therethrough. Some or all the components of the antenna system may be implemented in a semiconductor chip. The ESDA is steerable by changing the phases of the signals routed to each of the antenna elements from time to time.
