  • Abstract
    A design technique for generating negative group delay (NGD) without the use of lossy circuits is reported. Furthermore, the lossless NGD circuit is employed in designing a serially fed antenna array. The NGD is generated by using an antenna and a T-junction power divider. The NGD circuit cancels out the positive group delay in serially fed arrays resulting in beam squint elimination.
