Abstract

PURPOSE:To realize a time-division exchange system MSM with high space utilizing efficiency by combining stereoscopically plural microwave signal distributors, combiners and plural two-dimensional constitution microwave switch matrix (MSM) units without using a cable. CONSTITUTION:Plural MSM units 1-4 are used and they are stacked in a prescribed direction. That is, a side face at which microwave signal input ports and microwave output ports of each units exist is arranged on the same plane and they are stacked in the broadwise direction. Then microwave signal distributors 101-104 (microwave signal combiners 111-114) are fitted directly to the plane on which the microwave signal input ports (output ports) of each unit are arranged. The four input/output ports arranged in the broadwise direction among the input ports of the units 1-4 are connected to each distributor and combiner.

In contrast, a large-scale MSMi is configured by connecting multiple microwave signal distributors and microwave signal combiners and multiple two-dimensional MSM units with a small number of microwave input/output ports using microwave signal transmission cables. A method has also been considered (Japanese Patent Application No. 55-4364).
However, with this method, the number of microwave signal transmission cables used increases in proportion to the number of microwave input/output ports, so the space for wiring the cables increases, and the cables intersect with each other, resulting in increased rigidity. There are disadvantages such as low vibration resistance of small cables.
