Abstract
An innovative, phase coherent, power combining method, known as inter-injection locking applied to linear limited scan phased arrays is investigated. In this novel method, each antenna element in the array is supplied by power from a separate oscillator. However, the oscillator phases are allowed to be synthesized coherently by means of a coupling network and injection currents, being the input controls to the system of coupled phases oscillators. The inter-injection-locked phased arrays studied in this paper provide more design freedom than conventional phased arrays. They also result in systems more adapted to solid state monolithic integration technology.
