The circuit design of excitation of the 144 element patch antenna array with operated polarization

The block diagram of the distribution device is developed for a 144-element array of the patch irradiators, consisting of four subsystems, each of which provides excitation of two ports in the four-element clusters. Necessary switchings in the distribution device for maintenance of demanded regimes of excitation it is carried out at the expense of the commutator, thus phase shifters are excluded from the excitation circuit design.
