Abstract

At present, millimeter wave fast tunable components are required for telecommunication systems, car collision prevention radar, etc. The only mechanical way of control inserts practically no loss in the frequency agile system. That is why micro-electromechanical systems devices are being studied intensively. In an overview, an alternative way – piezo-electromechanical tuning of microwave components – is reported.
