This paper deals with the design and development of an Injection-Locking Coupled Oscillators(ILCO), which functions like phase-shifter in the Active Intergrated Phased Array Antenna(AIPAA). This linear array 2-element ILCO consists of two Injection Locking Hair-pin Resonator Oscillators(ILHRO) and an unilateral amplifier. The first and second elements of the ILCO have same frequency tuning range but locking bandwidths of 11.5MHz and 14MHz respectively. A phase shift of .DELTA..PHI.=158.4.deg.(-78.0.deg. to 80.4.deg.) could be obtained inthe second element of ILCO when the first elementof the ILCO was in the reference locking mode(.DELTA..PHI.=0.deg.). When the ILCO is applied to the AIPAA, the predicted beam scanning angle value will be 38.4.deg.. Each ILCO gives good frequency stability and lower AM, FM, and PM noise charactheristics in the mutual coupling lockingmode. The ILCO can not only play a part as the phase shifter for the AIPAA but it can also be usedas the power combining device in the mm-wave frequency range and as a part of a T/R MMIC module.

We discuss the method of a high precision range trigger and generation for a high range resolution radar. To verify the designed range resolution performance, we use test-equipments which can absolutely make a precision range shorter than the desined range resolution. The accuracy of generated range is proportional to the system reference clock. However, the system main processor is limited to input reference clocks and a higher available one is expensive in the conventional method. To solve this problem, we proposed that the range trigger and generation method using multi-phase-shiftings and integration. Through a experiment, we verified that the proposed method made problems which can be ocurred in the conventional method clear.
