The beamforming network includes a plurality of array ports and a plurality of beam ports or a space fed system. A plurality of antenna elements and a plurality of transmit/receive modules are included. Each one of the modules is coupled between a corresponding one of the antenna elements and a corresponding one of the array ports. A calibration system is provided having: an RF input port; an RF detector port; an RF detector coupled to the RF detector port; and an antenna element port. A switch section is included for sequentially coupling each one of the antenna elements through the beam forming/space-fed network and the one of the transmit/receive modules coupled thereto selectively to either: (a) the detector port during a receive calibration mode; or, (b) to the RF input port during a transmit calibration mode. The switch section includes a switch for selectively coupling a predetermined one of the antenna elements, i.e., a calibration antenna element, selectively to either: (a) the RF test input of the calibration system during the receive calibration mode through a path isolated from the beamforming network; or, (b) to the detector port during the transmit calibration mode through a path isolated from the beamforming network. In one embodiment, the calibration antenna element is disposed in a peripheral region of the array of antenna elements. In another embodiment, the array of antenna elements is arranged in clusters, each one of the clusters having a calibration antenna element.

摘要： A high current lateral transistor for an integrated circuit device is disclosed. The emitter and collector regions extend into the base region for a distance of approximately one half the thickness of the base region. A second region of the same conductivity type as the collector, surrounds the collector and is spaced therefrom. The base contact shorts together this second region and the base region so that when the transistor goes into saturation excess current will not flow into the substrate.
