الملخص
The paper outlines theory and practical
applications of shunt varactor loaded metamaterial
lines. The traditional metamaterial line is loaded
with an additional shunt varactor to get tunable
band-pass characteristics. Design equations are
developed to synthesize a generalized metamaterial
line with arbitrary impedance, phase, and bandpass
response characteristics. To illustrate the
concept, two compact reconfigurable microwave
devices including a Wilkinson power divider with a
tunable band-pass response and a tunable phase
shifter were designed and fabricated.
