To the best of my knowledge, the presented work is the first SiGe BiCMOS core-chip that achieved a positively sloped high gain with a 6-bit phase and amplitude
The DC operating points, especially for the load transistors, are selected regarding the voltage swing range, which is limited by the breakdown voltage of the
Phase and amplitude errors are significant specifications for an attenuator because along with the phase shifter (PS), they determine phase/amplitude error of the overall T/R
Observing the high insertion loss of the fabricated 4-bit MEMS based digital phase shifter which is around 15.3- 18.1dB, two active phase shifter designs based on
For a phase shifter, most significant performance parameter is RMS phase error; as a result the topology of the phase shifter should be selected with regarding phase
[5] utilizes a differential quadrature all-pass filter for vector generation which provides low RMS phase error over a wide bandwidth and high gain at the cost of
number of cascaded amplifier stages and power consumption. Thirdly, variable gain amplifier is utilized to compensate gain variations in phase shifter. All of the inductors
Simulations results of active phase shifter systems demonstrate 2dB variation in one of the LNAs gain will result an average of 7 degree phase shift at the output signal.
