摘要：This dissertation presents a beam forming network (BFN) for phased array antenna-based on coherently radiating periodic structure (CORPS). The elements of CORPS are selected in such a way to obtain broad band characteristics, good return loss and good isolation between the radiating elements. These elements were arranged in such a way that the BFN naturally produces Gaussian amplitude. This methodology reduces the complexity of the conventional phased array design making it more flexible and minimizing the loss of energy inside the structure. A phase shifter design is proposed for the CORPS. The entire BFN’s sub-blocks have been designed for the frequency band of 5.925 GHz to 6.425 GHz, which find applications in communication satellite, fixed wireless systems.
