Microwave Reciprocal Latching Ferrite Phase Shifters
Abstract
In the search for small size, low cost, reciprocal latching microwave phase shifters, two promising designs were brought to the developmental prototype stage. Each employs a dual mode principle in which contra-rotating senses of circular polarization are subjected to controlled phase delay for opposing directions of propagation. In the first design, the dual mode propagating structure is a ridged waveguide with four equally spaced ridges to maintain double reflection symmetry. In the second design, the dual mode propagating structure is a combination balanced slotline and balanced microstrip both deposited with mutual interaction region within a ferrimagnetic substrate.
