RESUMO

Abstract This paper presents the implementation of a 3-bit microstrip fractal-based phase shifter operating in the 430 MHz to 470 MHz frequency range. The fractal structure is used to confine different delay line lengths in the same area due to the space-filling properties of the used Hilbert fractal curve. The proposed design has three bits corresponding to 45, 90, and 180 degrees phase changes selected according to the switching circuit based on a Double Pole Double Throw (DPDT) switch implemented with PIN diodes. Comparisons between simulated and measured results are shown according to the chosen degree of use of PIN diodes.
