Abstract

We replace the standard model scalar doublet by a doublet of vector fields and generate masses by dynamical symmetry breaking. Oblique radiative corrections are small if the new vector bosons ( B⁺, B⁰ ) are heavy. In this note it is shown that the model has a low momentum scale and above Λ≃ 2 TeV it does not respect the perturbative unitarity. From tree-graph unitarity the allowed region of B ⁺ (B⁰) mass is estimated as m_B⁺ ≥ 369 \hboxGeV (m_B⁰ ≥ 410 GeV) at Λ= 1 TeV.
