How a passive Radar can have an RF source?

The single RF source is not part of the array. It could be replaced by a receiver. The array itself, like a simple antenna, is passive and doesn't care.Cuddlyable3 (talk) 17:14, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think a better name for this is space fed, phased array. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.97.67.59 (talk) 11:35, 19 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Passive Electronically Scanned Array → Passive electronically scanned array –

Per WP:MOSCAPS ("Wikipedia avoids unnecessary capitalization") and WP:TITLE, this is a generic, common term, not a propriety or commercial term, so the article title should be downcased. In addition, WP:MOSCAPS says that a compound item should not be upper-cased just because it is abbreviated with caps. Lowercase will match the formatting of related article titles.

Support. Sources by and large don't use caps: see this Google Books search. Dohn joe (talk) 19:37, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
