ABSTRACT:
Provided is a broadband phase shifter using a coupled line and parallel open and short stubs. The broadband phase shifter of the present research has a new switching network structure by forming a coupled line, main transmission lines and parallel λ/8 (45°) open and short stubs on both ends of the main transmission lines in order to obtain broadband phase characteristic that the phase difference between two networks is uniform. The broadband phase shifter includes a first path network including a reference standard transmission line whose input/output characteristic impedance is Z0and electrical length is θ1; a second path network having two symmetrical main transmission lines connected to each other by a coupled line in the center and parallel open and short stubs connected to both ends of the two symmetrical main transmission lines, the main transmission lines having characteristic impedance Zmand an electrical length θmand the parallel open and short stubs having characteristic impedance Zsand an electrical length θs; and a switching means for selecting only one path among the first path network and the second path network.
