In this paper, the novel microwave oscillator incorporating a planar cavity resonator(PCR) is presented to reduce the phase noise of the oscillator in a planar environment. Compared to the conventional planar( $\lambda$/4 open stub resonator), the phase noise is improved about 16 dBc/Hz @100 kHz. The design of the oscillator is based on a reflection type configuration using the low 1/f SiGe HBT transistor(LPT16ED). The output power is measured 2.76 dBm at 12.5 GHz. In this paper, the oscillator used to the PCR can be expected to provide a solution for low phase noise oscillator in microwave circuits.

This letter describes a compact printed helical resonator and its application to a microwave oscillator circuit implemented in coplanar waveguide (CPW) technology. The high quality (Q)-factor and spurious-free characteristic of the resonator contribute to the phase noise reduction and the harmonic suppression of the resulting oscillator circuit, respectively. The designed resonator showed a loaded Q-factor of 180 in a chip area of only 40% of the corresponding miniaturized hairpin resonator without any spurious resonances. The fully planar oscillator incorporated with this resonator showed an additional phase noise reduction of 10.5 dB at a 1 MHz offset and a second harmonic suppression enhancement of 6 dB when compared to those of a conventional CPW oscillator without the planar helical resonator structure.

This paper describes a compact printed helical resonator and its application to a microwave oscillator circuit implemented in coplanar waveguide(CPW) technology. The high Q-factor and spurious-free characteristic of the resonator contribute to the phase noise reduction and the harmonic suppression of the resulting oscillator circuit, respectively. The designed resonator resonating at the frequency of 5.5 GHz showed a loaded Q of 180 in a chip area of only 40 % of the corresponding miniaturized hairpin resonator without any spurious resonances. The fully planar oscillator incorporated with this resonator showed additional phase noise reduction of 10.5 dB at 1 MHz offset and a second harmonic suppression enhancement of 6 dB when compared to those of a conventional CPW oscillator without the planar helical resonator(PHR) structure.

In this paper, we proposed the planar textile resonator for constructing wearable MR-WPT system and analyzed the characteristic of textile substrates used in resonators. The planar textile resonators were designed to resonate at 1-10 MHz. The loop and coil were fabricated planar structure on textile substrate using conductive materials. Polyester fiber and cotton widely used in real life were chosen as textile resonators for wearable applications and copper tape and silver paste were used for fabricating planar loop and coil on textile substrate. For comparison analysis on transfer efficiency according to the types of textile, transmitter and receiver parts were symmetric. According to the result, for the highest transfer efficiency of wearable WPT system, the planar resonators have specifications of relative thick textile substrate with low permittivity and low surface resistance of conductive pattern. The performed experiments show that the planar textile resonator is possible to be used for resonator in wearable MR-WPT system.

In this paper, a novel split ring resonator is proposed for improvement of phase noise characteristics that is weak point of oscillator using planar type microstrip line resonator. Oscillator using proposed split ring resonator is designed, it has improved phase noise characteristics. At the fundamental frequency of 5.8GHz, 7.22dBm output power and -83.5 dBc@100kHz phase noise have been measured for oscillator with split ring resonator. The phase noise characteristics of oscillator is improved about 9.7dB compared to one using the general ${\lambda}/4$ microstrip resonator. Next, we designed voltage controlled oscillator using proposed split ring resonator with varactor diode. The VCO has 125MHz tuning range from 5.833GHz to 5.845GHz, and phase noise characteristic is -118~-115.5 dBc/Hz@100KHz. Due to its simple fabrication process and planar type, it is expected that the technique in this paper can be widely used for low phase noise oscillators for both MIC and MMIC applications.

In this paper, a planar transistor oscillator for X-band using a newly proposed L-shaped monopole slot resonator is proposed. For planar design, an L-shaped monopole slot with an open-end is used as a resonator for a transistor oscillator. As a result of the simulated design of the resonator in three stages, a high Q value of 1169.84 and a high insertion loss of 49.934 dB were identified. The results of the final design and manufactured oscillator measurements confirmed that the oscillation output is greater than 7 dBm and has good phase noise characteristics of -58 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset. The proposed oscillator is planar and has the advantage of being directly applicable to microwave integrated circuit technology. It also has the advantage of being able to reduce its size as it can only be implemented in microstrip form without additional devices such as metal cavities and tuning screws in 3D structures, as in the case of a DRO (dielectric resonance oscillator).

planar circulator swith arbitrarily shaped ferrite resonators are analyzed in this paper. First, resonant frequencies and field distributions for the magnetized ferrite resonator are obtained using finite element method (FEM). Then the RF voltage distributions and other circuit parameters of the circulator which is formed by connecting three suitable transmission lines ot the ferrite resonator are derived from the green function . To remove the spurious solutions in analyzing the ferrite resonator, the results of eigenvalue analysis by node based FEM are comapred with the edge based fEM. The green function is expanded in terms of normalized eigenfunctions of th ecorresponding wave equation. Circulator parameters for circular disk resonator are clculated and compared with the analytical results. The experimental data for the designed circulator using hexagonal reosnator in the 850 MHz frequency range agree well iwth the simulated data.

In this paper, a $\lambda/4$ hairpin resonator is proposed to reduce the size of planar resonators for a LTCC MLC bandpass filter. The $\lambda/4$ hairpin resonator operates as stepped impedance resonator (SIR) without changing the width of the planar resonator. It is composed of two sections those are parallel coupled line and transmission line. The characteristic impedance of two sections is different each other. The design formulas of the bandpass filter using the coupling element at the arbitrary position are derived from even and odd-mode analysis. The formulas can take account of the arbitrary coupling of lumped ana/or distributed resonators. The advantage of this filter is its abilities to change freely the coupling structure between two resonators. Experimental bandpass filters for 2.4GHz Band are implemented and their performances are shown.

The substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) structure can be approximated as the rectangular waveguide using common dielectric substrate with via-holes. To realize reflection-type resonator, $50-{\omega}$ microstrip line can be used for coupling with the center plane of the cavity. The oscillator is designed to operate at 9.45 GHz using the reflection-type SIW cavity resonator. The phase noise of oscillator shows -98.1dBc/Hz at 100 KHz offset. In experiment, the reflection type SIW cavity resonator improves the loaded quality factor making the low phase noise oscillator possible. Due to the entirely planar structure of this resonator, this technique can also be adequate in oscillator applications for a low cost and low phase noise performance.
