This project proposes the hybrid integration of the lowest loss MEMS switches (MEMtronics capacitive MEMS switches) and the lowest loss phase shifter configurations. Together, the newer MEMS technology mated with well-established phase shifter technology, offers a"game changing"solution for low-loss, high-power phase shifter components at X-band.
