    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to radio engineering, and more specifically to high-frequency (HF) signal transmission/reception devices based on photoconductive switching elements. An HF signal transmission/reception device comprises a signal electrode with matching elements disposed along an edge thereof; a ground electrode, a dielectric layer between the signal electrode and the ground electrode, photoconductive elements (PE) each electrically connected to the signal electrode and the ground electrode and arranged in a grid, an excitation signal feed point, and load elements electrically connected to the matching elements. The photoconductive elements each have a switched-off state in the absence of a control light flux and a switched-on state in the presence of a control light flux, The switched-on photoconductive elements form a reflection profile of the signal supplied from the excitation signal feed point. The distance between adjacent photoconductive elements is less than half the wavelength of the excitation signal.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an analog phase shifter for mitigating transmission losses. The analog phase shifter includes a multi-port network including an input port for inputting an RF signal and an output port for outputting a phase-changed RF signal. The analog phase shifter further includes a hybrid coupler configured to operably couple the input port and the output port to a plurality of load ports. The analog phase shifter additionally includes tunable reflective loads coupled to the hybrid coupler through the plurality of load ports. Load values of the tunable reflective loads are tuned by applying a plurality of independent voltages.

    Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus and method for wirelessly transmitting power to power receivers from a power transmitter. The present disclosure provides a rational search procedure for locations of the power receivers, and provides a function of simultaneously charging multiple receivers using microwave multi-focusing. The wireless power transmission method performed by a power transmitter includes determining angular coordinates of the power transmitter in relation to a position of at least one power receiver; determining a distance between the at least one power receiver and the power transmitter based on the determined angular coordinates by using a focused microwave field; determining a location of the at least one power receiver based on the determined angular coordinates and the distance; and wirelessly transmitting power by focusing the microwave field to the determined location of the at least one power receiver.
