This book focuses on the multi-beam phased array antenna as a satellite ground station. As there are already many excellent books on phased array antennas in the literature, this book focuses mainly on some engineering practices and fills the gap between principles and practices, such as array excitation error impact analysis and calibration methods, array geometry design for hemispherical coverage, multiple beam resource management, etc. This book is particularly suitable for readers interested in satellite constellation design or satellite ground station design.

This book also benefits researchers and engineers in the fields of phased array antennas, aerospace engineering, telecommunications, etc.
Guolong He received the B.S. degree in electronic engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China, in 2008, and the Ph.D. degree in aerospace engineering from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, in 2016. Since 2008, he has been with the Beijing Institute of Tracking and Telecommunication Technology, Beijing, China, and involved in the design, construction, and maintenance of many satellite ground stations. Currently, he is in charge of several projects with both parabolic reflector antennas and phased array antennas. He is the project manager of 4×35-m Kashi Deep Space Antenna Array.
