Phase shifter including first and second boards having rails thereon and configured to be rotatable with respect to each other and an antenna formed therefrom

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a pre-5-Generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4-Generation (4G) communication system such as long-term evolution (LTE). A phase shifter device according to various embodiments of the present disclosure may include: a first board configured to comprise a phase changing rail; and a second board configured to comprise an input rail connected to an input port, a first output rail connected to a first output port, a second output rail connected to a second output port, and a connection rail connecting the first output rail with the second output rail. The first board may be disposed to be spaced a predetermined distance apart from the second board so as to face and overlay the second board. The phase of a signal passing through a first section of the connection rail may vary by a first value depending on the rotation of the first board. The signal may be divided into a first signal transmitted to the first output port and a second signal transmitted to the second output port.
