Abstract:In this article, to improve the temperature uniformity of the microwave (MW) heating system, a 0.5-kW 2.45 GHz GaN (gallium nitride)-based MW heating system with active phase control is presented. The proposed system consists of two 2.45 GHz signal generators, two electrically controlled phase shifters, two 250 W GaN amplifiers, two metal patch antennas, and the MW applicator with a heating material. The controlled signal is radiated into the MW applicator through the antenna, and the radiation direction can b… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
