ABSTRACT:
PIN diodes are ineffective as waveguide switches because the device and its connecting leads behave in total as an inductive obstacle.
There is described herein a method of converting the resultant obstacle into a broad band series resonant circuit which may be switched into two states. With the diode conducting, the obstacle appears as a short-circuit across the guide. With the diode nonconducting, the obstacle appears as an open circuit across the guide.
