extinction ratio could be increased further by a proper choice of splitting ratios of the couplers [10]. The wavelength resolution limit of the OSA also limits a precise measurement of the actual extinction ratio. The minimum possible change in the FSR during tuning of the MZI by this technique was

โฆ Synopsis
Two wideband tapered slot antennas are designed, fabricated, and tested. The first antenna, which is fabricated on a high dielectric constant substrate (e r 5 10.2), shows a measured return loss of better than 10 dB from 1.6 to 12.4 GHz (7.7:1 bandwidth), and an antenna gain varying from 3.6 to 7.8 dBi. The second antenna is built on a low dielectric constant substrate (e r 5 2.2), and demonstrates return loss of better than 10 dB from 1.8 to 15.2 GHz (8.4:1 bandwidth). The second antenna also has improved antenna gain, from 5 to 15.6 dBi, and is used to build a wideband 1 3 4 H-plane phased array with a total gain of 9-17 dBi and a beam steering angle of 6158 from 3 to 12 GHz.
