Abstract :
A high performance V-band beam control array has been designed, developed and demonstrated. A transmission switch with 24 dB ON/OFF ratio for a single grid and 42 dB ON/OFF ratio (4 dB minimum loss) at /spl sim/62 GHz for a grid pair has been experimentally demonstrated. A 130/spl deg/ reflection phase shift with /spl sim/2.7 dB loss at 60 GHz for a single grid has been successfully obtained.<>
