Abstract
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology is on the verge of revolut ionizing RF and microwave applications.' The requirements of present day an d future RF/microwave systems for lower weight, volume, power consumption a nd cost with increased functionality, frequency of operation and component integration are driving the development of new RF/microwave MEMS components and system architectures.
