Abstract

In this article, a new true‐time‐delay photonic system is presented that drives a phased array antenna for beam steering and beamforming. It is optimized to use the least possible number of components and utilizes a very simple operation. It is tolerable in small differences of the excitation phase and distance between the elements of the phased array antenna. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

We have designed and fabricated a 5-GHz fully integrated RTD/ HBT VCO using an InP-based technology for the first time. To achieve the wide-tuning range of the VCO, a p-n junction varactor was used in the L-C resonator, which has not been realized in previous works on RTD-based oscillators. As a res
