1. A phase control block for combining signals from a phased array antenna comprising:

  • a phase shifter;

    a plurality of phase switches connected to the phase shifter having a first state wherein the plurality of phase switches forms a non-phase shifted signal from a first signal and a phase shifted signal from a second signal at the phase shifter and a second state wherein the plurality of phase switches forms a non-phase shifted signal from the second signal and a phase shifted signal from the first signal at the phase shifter; and

    a signal summing device connected to the phase shifter and the plurality of phase switches for generating a summed output signal that is the sum of the non-phase shifted signal and the phase shifted signal.
