Abstract :
A new type of PIN diode phase shifter is described in which two phase-shifting parts can be incorporated into one, by combining the properties of reflection and switched lines. This results in reducing the circuit dimensions, conductor length and line losses. Theoretical analysis, advantages and limitations of two possible combinations are presented.
