MMIC Compensation Network for Phased Array Element Mismatch

Abstract

A tuning scheme has been developed that compensates the radiating element input mismatch that occurs in broadband phased arrays. The compensated radiator has an input VSWR less than 2.0 from 8 to 18 GHz and antenna scan angles from 0 to 60. Keywords: Phased arrays; Broadband.
