This paper reports on the potential of RF-MEMS technology to improve and miniaturize new functions in Radar front end and antenna modules. The insertion of new MEMS components and subsystems, using RF-MEMS switches, filters and phase shifters, in radar front end are reported in this article and their characterization results are discussed. © 2009 EuMA.
