HIGH SPEED, HIGH POWER S-BAND PHASE SHIFTER

Abstract

A description of a new model phase shifter is given with accompanying test results. The problems of moding and poor RF contact were eliminated by reducing the radial dimensions of the cavity structures and changing the mechanical design. Matching of the device, by adjusting the dimensions of the feed structure and end fins, reduced the VSWR considerably. The matching resulted in a more linear phase shift curve and lowered the attenuation. By matching the device closer to its cutoff frequency, less movement of the fin structure is necessary to obtain any particular value of phase shift. (Author)
