Abstract: A signal processing device may include a feeding apparatus having a first conductor configured to transmit a radio frequency signal; an insulating medium covering the first conductor; and a second conductor covering the insulating medium. The conductor may have first, second, and third portions. The third portion of the first conductor may be configured to be connected to the target apparatus to feed the radio frequency signal to the target apparatus and configured to form a capacitive impedance with the target apparatus, and the second portion of the first conductor may be configured to form an inductive impedance with the target apparatus. An absolute value of a sum of the capacitive impedance and the inductive impedance may be less than or equal to a preset impedance threshold.

Abstract: A feed network includes an adjustable electromechanical phase shifter that comprises a main printed circuit board and a phase shifting unit. The adjustable electromechanical phase shifter is configured to shift the phase of an RF signal that is input to the feed network and provide the phase shifted RF signal to at least one radiating element that is positioned on a first side of a reflector of an antenna, where the phase shifting unit is formed on the surface of a first side of the main printed circuit board, and the first side of the main printed circuit board is a side that is closer to the at least one radiating element, and the main printed circuit board is positioned on the first side of the reflector.

Abstract: A power divider includes: a dielectric substrate; a transmission line circuit on a first surface of the dielectric substrate, the transmission line circuit including an input trace, a first output trace and a second output trace. The transmission line circuit is configured to split a signal received at the input trace into a first sub-component that is output on the first output trace and a second sub-component that is output on the second output trace; and a reference potential layer, set on a second surface opposite the first surface of the dielectric substrate, where the reference potential layer is provided with a decoupling window that exposes a part of the dielectric substrate to reduce coupling in the transmission line circuit.
