Abstract:
The traveling wave excitation system phase shifter chassis method and device of the invention is compact, inexpensive, and versatile when compared to customary methods for generating traveling wave excitation signals that would require using an equivalent number of commercial function generators. The method and device of the invention produces up to 56 simultaneous sine waves that are phase shifted with respect to one another.
