Abstract	Satellite and terrestrial (wireless) communication systems require high functionality (i.e., direction finding, beam steering, reconfigurability, frequency agility, and broadband) to address multiservice, multiband, and multistandard operation in a confined small volume. Although there are existing technologies with such functionality, the associated devices are large and heavy, and often limited in functionality. However, recent developments in conformal miniature ultra-wideband apertures with phase amplification of the received/transmitted signal provide for a new direction in fulfilling the lofty goal of miniature antenna direction finding apertures. A way to overcome reduced resolution is to amplify the phase difference between adjacent elements. In this paper, we propose to enhance the phase difference between adjacent elements (as close as λ/10 apart) by controlling interelement coupling. The design is achieved by casting the array elements in a T- or π-resonator network. Optimization leads to an antenna-circuit structure that achieves phase amplification. This equivalent circuit mimics the hearing capabilities of some small insects (e.g., the parasitoid Ormia ochracea).
