Phase shifters are essential components in a phased array for adjusting the phase of each antenna path and steering the beam. There are various types of conventional RF phase shifters, and they are analyzed in detail in this chapter.doi:10.1007/978-94-007-0662-0_4Yikun Yu...

Let’s Start with the Evolution of Phased Arrays. How Did We Get Here? Much of the early phased array work was developed for radar applications, so considering the evolution of radar antenna implementations provides good insight as to how the modern digital b...
The performance achieved with analog beamforming based onphased arraysis limited by the use ofquantized phase shiftsand thelack of amplitude adjustment. This makes it more challenging to finely tune the beams and steer nulls.RF phase shifters may be active or passive. Practical active phase shifte...

In this example, the Transmitter and Receiver share a common path RF chain that includes an amplifier, a phase shifter, and an attenuator. Two switches are used in the Transmit and Receive path so that the common path can be shared. In this model, ideal behavior is assumed for many of ...
The phase shifter has a measured power handling of 1 W before any self-actuation occurs. To our knowledge, this is the lowest loss phase shifter at 2.0 GHz using any technology.关键词: base-station antennas RF MEMS capacitive switches phased arrays ...
