Abstract :
The described variable attenuator utilizes p-i-n diodes and three-port hybrids. Two arrangements of the diodes are investigated. The corresponding attenuators have basically different performances. An experimental device was built in stripline technique and a measured attenuation variable from 0 to 28 dB over the entire X-band was obtained.
