The KBMPS180400 is a 4x4 Butler matrix beamforming network designed for use in phased array antenna systems operating from 18 to 40 GHz. It features 2.4mm female connectors, an insertion loss less than 12.5 dB, a maximum VSWR of 1.90:1, minimum isolation of 15 dB, and an amplitude imbalance of ±2.2 dB with phase imbalance up to ±15° at 29 GHz. The device handles 20 watts of power and operates over a temperature range of -54°C to +85°C. The part measures 3.45 inches in length, 2.60 inches in width, and 0.81 inches in height.
The NEW KRYTAR 4×4 Butler Matrix with Phase Shift uses KRYTAR’s high-performance 90- and 180-degree Hybrid Couplers providing super phase accuracy, amplitude imbalance, stability and repeatability. A Butler matrix is a beamforming network used to feed a phased array of antenna elements. Its purpose is to control the direction of a beam, or beams, of radio transmission.
KRYTAR’s Butler Matrix with Phase Shift can be utilized as a beamforming network used to feed a phased array of antenna elements with the purpose to control the direction of a beam, or beams, of radio transmission. The advantage over other methods of angular beamforming is the simplicity of use in a variety of applications. KRYTAR’s 4×4 Butler Matrix, Model KBMPS180400, is the ideal choice for antenna array beamforming, radar tracking and direction finding, 5G NR (New Radio), Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 6E, mmWave, multiple-input/multi
