| Abstract | The demand for reliable high power solid-state sources at upper microwave and millimeter-wave frequencies has been the main driving force behind research on spatial power combining techniques. In order to combine power in space, the use of alternative, tile and tray, configurations of active planar antenna arrays (of oscillators or amplifiers) has been proposed and demonstrated. We focus on the tray configuration which, employing end-fire-type antennas, places no restriction on space for active stages and offers a higher operational bandwidth. Our investigations concern the passive structure of an X-band spatial power combiner consisting of seven trays of planar quasi-Yagi antennas (Deal, W.R. et al., IEEE Trans. Microwave Theory Tech., vol.48, no.6, p.910-18, 2000) connected back-to-back for the inclusion of active stages. Hard horns, for signal launching and receiving, and Schiffman phase shifters within the trays are used to provide the uniform field magnitude and phase across the trays required to achieve the large dynamic range of the combiner. Performance comparison of the power combining structure with and without Schiffman phase shifters is measured and discussed. Using Schiffman phase shifters helps to reduce insertion losses and increases the operational bandwidth of the tray-type power combiner over its straight through counterpart. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
