A Reconfigurable Feeder for Combinational Switched-Beam Network

Abstract

Reconfigurable feeder for switched-beam based on RF switch is proposed on this paper. The proposed reconfigurable switch network provides not only on/off-functionality but also distributive path by attaching combiner/splitter and SP4T switch. In addition to reconfigurable input/output paths, isolation of the switch network has improved. Two-port output reconfigurable feeder generates multi-beam and the number of output can be expanded by combining two-port output reconfigurable feeders.
