Manufacturing Optimization Case: Mass Production Solution for 256-Channel Phased Array Antenna Feed Network PCBs

Engineering Context / Abstract Mass production of a 256-channel phased array antenna feed network PCB is fundamentally different from building a small RF prototype. Trace-width or dielectric-thickness variation is repeated across hundreds of signal paths and becomes a system-level error in beam direction, gain distribution, sidelobe control, and calibration stability. This manufacturing optimization case involved...
