الوصف: | Abstract A novel 4 × 4 Butler Matrix (BM) with continuously tunable phase covering phase range from −180° to 180° is proposed using substrate integrated waveguide technology. The proposed BM consists of two H‐plane hybrid couplers, two E‐plane hybrid couplers and four 180° tunable phase shifters. With this simple configuration, the proposed BM can realise a continuously tunable progressive phase difference from −180° to 180° in a one‐dimensional (1‐D) or two‐dimensional (2‐D) form. For demonstration, the proposed BM has been fabricated to feed a 1 × 4 or 2 × 2 broadband microstrip antenna arrays. The fabricated prototype has a 16.7% fractional impendence bandwidth centred at 6 GHz. The measured pattern for the 1‐D array showed a continuous beam scanning range from −39° to 39° in H‐Plane, while the measured radiation patterns for the 2‐D array showed continuous beam range from −27° to 30° in elevation and 0°–180° in azimuth. The measurement results were in good agreement with the simulation results. |
