[0045] Further, the adjustable phase-shift power divider 3 includes four microstrip lines and four radio frequency switches for generating two output signals with equal amplitude and adjustable phase difference, and feeding the output signals into the main radiator 5, of which:
[0046] The four microstrip lines are the first microstrip line 11 , the second microstrip line 12 , the third microstrip line 13 and the fourth microstrip line 14 respectively, and the four radio frequency switches are the first radio frequency switch 21 and the second radio frequency switch respectively The switch 22 , the third radio frequency switch 23 and the fourth radio frequency switch 24 .

The included angle between the two straight lines is 90°; the characteristic impedances of the second microstrip line 12, the third microstrip line 13 and the fourth microstrip line 14 are all 50 ohms,
