Dense direct-current (DC) bias routing and numerous radio-frequency (RF) choke inductors pose major challenges to the practical implementation of phase-shifter-free beam steering using PIN-controlled phase switching. To address this issue, a compact vertical DC biasing network is proposed, in which most DC bias lines are routed beneath the ground plane. T ...
