Design of Novel Flat Bend Crossed Dipole for Wideband Phased Array Feed Applications

• This paper presents a novel Phased Array Feed (PAF) element based on flat bend crossed dipole fed by 50-Ohm coaxial line. The PAF element is dual-polarized and made from all-metal to minimize Ohmic losses and simplify cryogenic integration. It is optimized for 4- 8 GHz band aiming to possible later integration in the SKA pathfinder PHAROS2. The proposed design can also be a good element candidate of PAF for the Five hundred meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST) and Qi Tai Telescope (QTT) as well as other large radio telescopes.
