A Quad-Polarization and Beam Agile Array Antenna Using Rat-Race Coupler and Switched-Line Phase Shifter

This paper proposes a quad-polarized microstrip array antenna with beam steering capability. The proposed antenna consists of two patch elements, one rat-race coupler, and two 90° switchable phase shifters. With the aid of just four PIN diodes, the two 90° phase shifters can pr...
