THE DEVELOPMENT OF WIDEBAND WAVEGUIDE-MOUNTED FERRITE-PENCIL PHASE SHIFTERS FOR X-BAND,

Abstract

The ferrite pencil phase shifters described use a longitudinal direct magnetic field of variable intensity to change the tensor permeability of the ferrite within the guide, and consequently the phase of the wave travelling through it. The Mark I version is suitable for use over a 2.5 Gc/s band centered on 9.5 Gc/s. It has a low insertion loss, and a maximum phase shift of 1.2 wavelengths. The Mark II version is suitable for use over a 1.65 Gc/s band centred on 8.8 Gc/s, it has a low insertion loss, a minimum phase shift of 1 wavelength, and a maximum phase shift of 2.5 wavelengths.
