  • Publication number: 20150256128
    Abstract: The present invention provides a multi-port amplifier which adopts a pair of SP4T switches and a pair of hybrid couplers in order to flexibly adjust an amplification mode. By using the proposed invention, the limited system flexibility and reconfigurability due to fixed input and output relations are overcome regardless of a component failure in a system. Moreover, signal amplification based on effective signal distribution and combination can be consistently performed according to various port configurations by different switching modes. Thus, the overall practicality of outputs comparing to the conventional multi-port amplifier can be effectively increased within an available lifespan of the system.

  • Patent number: 8970441
    Abstract: Provided is an antenna apparatus which employs a small number of antenna devices and is intended to obtain a desired pattern without adjusting amplitude level and phase of each antenna device. The antenna apparatus includes a first ridge horn antenna, and a second ridge horn antenna spaced apart from the first ridge horn antenna by a determined distance. Here, a multi-beam pattern is generated using a third-order mode beam pattern of a synthetic beam obtained by synthesizing beams respectively radiated from the first and second ridge horn antennas. Accordingly, the antenna apparatus can be simplified, and a desired multi-beam pattern can be obtained without adjusting signal level and phase of each antenna device. Also, by employing the ridge horn antennas as array devices, the antenna apparatus can be used in a wide frequency band.
