Abstract:
This paper presents a compact phased-array antenna
transceiver system that can operate over a wide bandwidth from
10 to 35 GHz with the abilities of beam scanning and full-duplex
communication. The system consists of ultrawide-band Vivaldi
antennas, a multiline PET-based phase shifter, a six-channel
microstrip multiplexer, and monolithic microwave integrated
circuit (MMIC) amplifiers. The multiplexer routes 10, 19, and
32 GHz signals to the transmit path and 12, 21, and 35 GHz
signals to the receive path. The multiplexer shows insertion loss
between 2.2 and 3.4 dB for all six channels and together with
wide-band MMIC amplifiers plays an important role to build
a compact, multifrequency, and full-duplex transceiver system.
The system should have many applications in multiband satellite
communication systems and radar systems.
