Popis: The research and development of an antenna array with combined beam steering for Ku-band satellite communications in motion are presented in article. An analytical calculation and electrodynamic simulation of the antenna array with the proposed type of scanning is performed. The possibility of directivity improving of an antenna array with combined beam steering with fixed sub array configuration is studied. A microstrip power divider with a parallel-serial splitting network for antenna array with combined beam steering subarrays was developed. A prototype of the subarray for antenna with combined beam steering was made. An experimental prototype of antenna array with combined beam steering was developed, manufactured and experimentally investigated. A good agreement between measured and calculated characteristics was achieved.
