The measured noise figure at 10 GHz was less than 2 dB with an associated gain of 9.7 dB.

The stacked microstrip patch is used in an L-band planar array antenna for IFF applications. The aperture consists of two rows of six elements each. A corporate feed network in stripline is mounted as an integrated part behind the antenna aperture. A low density foam is used as a dielectric to obtain a light weight design.
