Beam Squint Using Integrated Gyrotropic Phase ShifterAbstract
Gyrotropic planar phase shifters are widely
used to control the radiation properties of phased array
antennas. The design and performance of a microstrip
array antenna with integrated ferrite phase-shifter are
described. Calculated tunable differential phase shift and
simulated beam scanning properties of the linear phased
array antenna are presented and corroborated with
measured results.
