A Wideband 360° Analog Phase Shifter Design

چکیده
This paper proposes a reflection-type wideband 360 ° analogue phase shifter. The phase shifter employs a branchline coupler circuit to achieve a wideband operation and a varactor-diode circuit to achieve a wide phase-shift range. Analytical formulas are derived to optimize the parameters in the coupler circuit for wideband operation and reduced attenuation ripple, and in the varactor circuit to minimize the frequency dependency of the output phase. Simulation results using the Advanced Design Systems (ADS 2005A) show that the design has a wide bandwidth, wide phase shift range, and low attenuation ripple, and is highly linear across the operation bandwidth.

Distributed Analog Phase Shifters with Low Insertion Loss
This paper describes the design and fabrication of distributed analog phase-shifter circuits. The phase shifters consist of coplanar-waveguide (CPW) lines that are periodically loaded with varactor diodes. The circuits are fabricated on GaAs using standard monolithic processing techniques. The phase velocity on these varactor diode-loaded CPW lines is a function of applied reverse bias, thus re...
متن کاملUltra-wideband microwave photonic phase shifter with a 360° tunable phase shift based on an erbium-ytterbium co-doped linearly chirped FBG.
A simple photonic approach to implementing an ultra-wideband microwave phase shifter based on an erbium-ytterbium (Er/Yb) co-doped linearly chirped fiber Bragg grating (LCFBG) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The LCFBG is designed to have a constant magnitude response over a reflection band, and a phase response that is linear and nonlinear in two sections in the reflection band. Wh...

A no ̈el technique for the design of phase shifters is de ̈eloped. The method makes use of the phase ̈ariation with frequency shown by frequency filters; this results in phase shifters that are small.

متن کاملSerrodyne Frequency Translator Using a 360 ' Analog CPW MMIC Phase Shifter
A 360" analog CPW MMIC phase shifter is presented for the first time. The compact MMIC employs eight multilayer 3 dB quadrature couplers and was fabricated using low cost GaAs foundry processing techniques. The phase shifter was required to implement a narrow band serrodyne frequency translator at 24 GHz. With an arbitrary, small-shift, frequency translation of +5 KHz, the measured results demo...
