MICROWAVE COMMUTATION ARRAY Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: microwave engineering. SUBSTANCE: array has n vertical and m vertical lines formed by nxm cells on the base of two-gate FETs, which operate in switch mode. Cells of the first horizontal line are connected in series, and cells of the rest of n-1 horizontal lines and m vertical lines are connected together and with input of the unit through directional coupler brought into the unit. The cells are controlled by application of corresponding voltages to the second gates of FETs. EFFECT: improved effectiveness of control of multibeam aerial. 1 dwg
