초록

본 논문은 S-파라미터를 어드미턴스 파라미터로 변환하는 것을 바탕으로 비대칭 분배되면서 동시에 임의의 임피던스로 변환시킬 수 있는 임피던스 변환기를 나타내었다. 회로 해석 방법을 우수/ 기수 모드 방법과 비교하면 본 논문의 파라미터 변환을 통한 방법은 위상 지연 정보와 임의의 포트 임피던스 값을 포함시키고 그리고 비대칭 구조등을 해석하는데 간단함을 알 수 있다. 이 설계 방법의 타당성을 확인하기 위해서 중심주파수 1 GHz에서 3:1의 비대칭 분배비율을 갖고 있고 $50{\Omega}$을 $12.5{\Omega}$ 비율로 변환되는 임피던스 변환기를 설계하였다. 임피던스 변환기를 구현하는 방법은 유도된 수식으로부터 계산된 작은 임피던스 선로를 병렬 오픈스터브가 연결된 전송선로를 사용하여 구현하였고, 이것의 실험 결과는 시뮬레이션 결과와 동일하게 나옴을 확인하였다.

This paper presents an arbitrary impedance transformer with unequal split, based on S- to admittance parameter conversion. When compared even/ odd- mode analysis, the parameter conversion design method constitutes a simple design method to include phase delay information and arbitrary port impedances and asymmetrical configurations. To validate this design method, we designed a 50 to $12.5{\Omega}$ impedance transformer with a 3:1 unequal power split, at an operating frequency of 1 GHz. To implement the proposed impedance transformer, the low impedance transmission lines of calculated result are fabricated by the transmission line connected shunt open stub. Good experimental performances were obtained, in full agreement with simulated results.
