摘要: A 4/spl times/1 microstrip patch array with a ferrite phase shifter was designed and tested experimentally. The successful in changing the length of feed lines, facilitating beam scanning via applied magnetic bias field H/sub 0/. Scan angles as large /spl plusmn/20/spl deg/ were observed. experimental results then compared finite element boundary integral simulation array. simulated data verified steering trends for this configuration.
