Abstract
The impact of high-temperature superconductor (HTS) technology on future aerospace systems is considered. HTS applications for filters, phase shifters, oscillators, and feeds for phased arrays are discussed. It is felt that the greatest payoff for HTS is in the corporate and Butler feeds and matching networks of phased arrays. Another benefit is the drastic reduction of volume and weight in multiplexers.<>
