U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service Alaska Regional Office National Historic Landmarks Program First Printing 2014 Introduction Alaska’s frontline role during the Cold War ushered in unprecedented economic, technological, political, and social changes. The state’s strategic value in defending our nation also played a key role in its bid for statehood. Since the end of the Cold War, Alaska’s role and its effects on the state have received increasing focus from historians, veterans, and longtime Alaskans. This resource guide is designed to help students and teachers in researching the Cold War in Alaska, and to provide basic information for anyone who is interested in learning more about this unique history. The guide begins with a map of Cold War military sites in Alaska and a brief summary to help orient the reader. -

The Development of Phased-Array Radar Technology the Development of Phased-Array Radar Technology
• FENN, TEMME, DELANEY, AND COURTNEY The Development of Phased-Array Radar Technology The Development of Phased-Array Radar Technology Alan J. Fenn, Donald H. Temme, William P. Delaney, and William E. Courtney I Lincoln Laboratory has been involved in the development of phased-array radar technology since the late 1950s. Radar research activities have included theoretical analysis, application studies, hardware design, device fabrication, and system testing. Early phased-array research was centered on improving the national capability in phased-array radars. The Laboratory has developed several test-bed phased arrays, which have been used to demonstrate and evaluate components, beamforming techniques, calibration, and testing methodologies. The Laboratory has also contributed significantly in the area of phased-array antenna radiating elements, phase-shifter technology, solid-state transmit-and- receive modules, and monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) technology. A number of developmental phased-array radar systems have resulted from this research, as discussed in other articles in this issue. A wide variety of processing techniques and system components have also been developed. This article provides an overview of more than forty years of this phased-array radar research activity. was certainly affordable array radar with thousands of array ele- not new when Lincoln Laboratory’s phased- ments, all working in tightly orchestrated phase co- Tarray radar development began around 1958. herence, would not be built for a very long time.
