Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a phase shifter. Background technique [0002] The phased scanning of the beam of the phased array antenna relies on a large number of phase shifters in the antenna array. In the phased array radar, the phased array antenna has thousands of units, and each unit needs a phase shifter. The phase of the phase shifter on each unit in the array can be adjusted between (0-2π). Adjusting the phase shifter in an electronically controlled manner can change the phase distribution on the antenna aperture and realize beam scanning in space. Therefore, the phase shifter is a key microwave component in the feed system. In the S, L and P band phased arrays, the high frequency digital phase shifters are mostly realized by PIN switching diodes, and the C, X and Ku bands are mostly realized by ferrite devices. But when it comes to the millimeter-wave frequency band, the above-mentioned implementation method is no longer applicable. When the f...
