Abstract

An antenna system for adaptive steering in azimuth and elevation. The sys utilizes a cross-shaped, planar, microstrip array with a central receiving element and with arms of parasitic elements having individual phase shifters which are simultaneously adjusted. In steering a null, the phase shifters are initially adjusted in a "random search" mode and are then adjusted in a "guided random search" mode.
