Abstract

This paper reports on the optical gain and phase control of a GaAs MMIC transmit-receive module with applications for active phased array antennas. Amplifier gain control of 15 dB and phase shifts of 45 degrees were obtained using an LED output power 250 [t.w and 50 pm respectively. The experimental results were used as an input to a simulation program to demonstrate the effect of amplitude and phase tapering to control the radiating beam of a linear active phased array antenna.
