摘要
A novel phase conjugator for active retrodirective array applications is presented. The circuit provides conversion gain as well as phase conjugating operation by using active devices, and results in a simple and compact design through the use of a common port for RF and IF signals. Measurement results indicate a 3.2dB conversion gain with an RF-IF isolation of 20dB. This phase conjugator can be used as a component in a retrodirective array when combined with an antenna.
