Abstract

A double diamond configuration of phase shift circuits are coupled via circulators, amplifiers, power dividers, and power combiners. The circuit arrangement serves to amplify signals in either direction while accurately maintaining relative phase shift. There is a 180 degree phase shift between components back to the originating transmission line, to this cancel them. The circuit may be used between microwave transmission lines, such as waveguides.
