Abstract :
Low-cost construction techniques for S-band twin-slab ferrite phase shifters are presented along with an experimental comparison of garnet and lithium-ferrite materials. A 3-bit phase shifter with lithium-ferrite material, which is approximately half the price of garnet material, had a measured loss of 0.4 dB and a peak power handling of 4.5 kW.
