Abstract :
Design of broadband digital phase shifters based on switchable right/left-handed transmission lines is considered. Different practical implementations of the phase shifters designed as microstrip and coplanar multilayer structures containing an artificial quasi-lumped-element left-handed transmission line and an artificial or natural right-handed transmission line are presented.
