Abstract :
A magnetostatic wave (MSW) delay line operating across a 600 MHz bandwidth at 14.4 GHz has been developed. The delay line has a maximum insertion loss of 21 dB, a minimum delay of 72 ns and a VSWR of less than 2.0:1, while occupying a volume of 4 in 3 (166.5 cm3). This unit weighs less than 16 oz (454 g).
