The hybrid phase shifting device is consist of general phase shifter in sub-array and the true time delay inter sub-array. This configuration for phased shifting can efficiently improve the beam squint according to frequencies. However, when an appropriate array configuration is not selected, a gain variation of main lobe for a phased array antenna is occurred. In order to solve these problems, a simplified formula for constructing efficient array based on the system design requirements, such as the fractional bandwidth, the maximum beam steering angle, and limit criterion of the gain variation, was presented.

The active devices used at microwave frequency have the different phase shift according to input power. Especially, The difference of the phase shift is large in the saturation region of the amplifier. In this paper, we disigned the phase control system for fixing the different phase shift at device. With the high frequency nonlinear amplifier, we fabricated such system that the phase shift to be fixed automatically using the varible phase shifter. The variable phase shifter fixed total phase variation of the circuit using the information that was obtained from the comparison of imputsignal phase with output signal phase. Even though the input signal is 2-tone or FM type, we could estimate and also fix the phase variation on DUT Dynamic range is about 10dB. It has been experimented at 1960MHz using Teflon (H=31mil, ${\varepsilon}r$=3.2)

We propose and demonstrate an I/Q demodulator using four-port BPSK demodulator base on additive mixing and reflection-type phase shifter using hybrid technique. Previously, the conventional I/Q demodulator base on multiplicative or additive mixing method divides I/Q signal path from mixer to parallel-to-serial converter. In this paper, we propose new I/Q demodulator without dividing I/Q baseband signal path. The proposed schematic requires half size in implementation and half power consumption in baseband path compared with the conventional receiver. Also, the proposed receiver eliminates parallel-to-serial converter after data decoding. The proposed circuit has been successfully demodulated a QPSK signal with the L-band carrier frequency and 20 Mbps data rate.

In this paper, the planar, compact, and broadband phased array antenna system for IMT-2000 applications has been investigated. Two methods far designing a low-cost and low-complex beam-farming network are proposed. First, a new compact and broadband phase shifter with continuously controlled phase bits is designed by using parallel coupled lines. Second, its equivalent phase delay line is suggested to be capable of replacing the complex phase shifter with a reference phase bit on a phased array antenna. For the purpose of achieving the broadband system, in addition to the broadband phase shifter, a wide-slot antenna with a ground reflector is utilized as an element antenna. Therefore, the phased array antenna system has achieved compact size, broad bandwidth, and wide steering angle, although it has low complexity and low fabrication cost. The 3${\times}$1 phased array antenna system has a compact size of 1.6 λ${\times}$ l.6 λ, which is the sufficient ground plane of the wide-slot antenna. Experimental results present that the S$\_$11/ has less than 15 dB within the band and its radiation patterns on an E-plane have the capability of steering an antenna beam from -29$^{\circ}$to +30$^{\circ}$.

This paper describes a sensorless control scheme for brushless dc motors(BLDCMs) using a phase shifter(FIPS) which can shift the zero-crossing point of the input signal with a specified amount of phase. The detection performance of the proposed FIPS is independent of the frequency of the input signal and quite robust with respect to the measurement noise. It is shown that the proposed sensorless control scheme using the FIPS is more effective in the respects of noise-robustness and cost than the previously known schemes. The generality and practicality of the proposed sensorless control scheme is demonstrated through performance analysis and experiments under various operating conditions.

In this paper, we propose a 4-coupled ferroelectric-based meander-type microstrip-line tunable phase shifter which has less than 2dB of insertion loss (IL) and larger than 10dB of return loss (RL)over 13~170Hz .Particularly at 15GHz, the differential phase shift (DPS) is observed to be $89{\circ}$ at zero bias and it increases up to $115{\circ}$ when 150V is applied. This indicates a DPS tunability of $26{\circ}$.

This paper deals with the design and development of an Injection-Locking Coupled Oscillators(ILCO), which functions like phase-shifter in the Active Intergrated Phased Array Antenna(AIPAA). This linear array 2-element ILCO consists of two Injection Locking Hair-pin Resonator Oscillators(ILHRO) and an unilateral amplifier. The first and second elements of the ILCO have same frequency tuning range but locking bandwidths of 11.5MHz and 14MHz respectively. A phase shift of .DELTA..PHI.=158.4.deg.(-78.0.deg. to 80.4.deg.) could be obtained inthe second element of ILCO when the first elementof the ILCO was in the reference locking mode(.DELTA..PHI.=0.deg.). When the ILCO is applied to the AIPAA, the predicted beam scanning angle value will be 38.4.deg.. Each ILCO gives good frequency stability and lower AM, FM, and PM noise charactheristics in the mutual coupling lockingmode. The ILCO can not only play a part as the phase shifter for the AIPAA but it can also be usedas the power combining device in the mm-wave frequency range and as a part of a T/R MMIC module.

Novel coupled line phase shifters and its equivalent phase delay line for compact broadband phased array antennas are proposed. These phase control circuits are designed to be less complex, small size and to use a less number of active devices. The phase shifter is able to control a 120$^{\circ}$ phase shift continuously, and the phase delay line for a reference phase has a fixed 60$^{\circ}$ shifted phase. Both have the low phase error of less than $\pm$3.5$^{\circ}$ and the low gain variations of less than 1 ㏈ within the 300 MHz bandwidth. These proposed circuits are adequate to form the efficient beam-forming networks with compactness, broadband, less complexity, and low cost.
