Abstract :
A microwave switch matrix is needed to provide dynamic transponder interconnectivity for the next generation of digital communication satellites. This paper describes the development of a unique 4 x 4 coupler crossbar microwave switch matrix which meets the future satellite-switched, time-division, multiple access (SS-TDMA) requirements.
