ABSTRACT:
A phase shifter which uses Bragg gratings and having tunable phase shift functions with respect to input signals in an RF band without using a separate RF device. The phase shifter includes a dielectric layer, a first conductive layer formed on an upper surface of the dielectric layer lengthwise along the dielectric layer so as to provide a signal path for the input signal, a second conductive layer formed at a first end of a lower surface of the dielectric layer so as to form Bragg gratings lengthwise along the dielectric layer, a third conductive layer formed at a second end of the lower surface of the dielectric layer in line with the second conductive layer so as to form Bragg gratings lengthwise along the dielectric layer, and a moving unit for adjusting a distance between the second conductive layer and the third conductive layer within a predetermined length. The phase of the signal of the RF band is shifted by adjusting the distance between the second and third conductive layers without using a separate RF device, thereby significantly reducing the manufacturing cost for the phase shifter.
