Abstract: When a radio frequency (RF) unit is provided with a delay line or a switch, as the number of arrays (the number of antennas) increases, the parasitic capacitance of the antennas increases and the insertion loss of the switch increases. In addition, the insertion loss may further increase at high frequencies expected to be used in the future.
