Abstract :
We present novel wireless transceiver architecture based on microelectromechanical (MEM) microwave switches. The measurements and calculated results of a reconfigurable module with a switched antenna, tunable filter, and shared components for a low weight, low power compact wireless transceiver are discussed.
