Phase shifter with compensation circuit

Abstract:

An apparatus is disclosed for phase-shifting signals with a compensation circuit. In example implementations, an apparatus for phase-shifting signals includes a phase shifter having a first port and a second port. The phase shifter also includes a signal phase generator, a compensation circuit, and a vector modulator. The compensation circuit includes a first capacitor with a first capacitance and a second capacitor with a second capacitance. The first capacitance is different from the second capacitance. The signal phase generator is coupled between the first port and the compensation circuit. The vector modulator is coupled between the compensation circuit and the second port.
