This paper proposes a tri-band bandpass filter using dual-mode stepped-impedance resonators (SIRs) with parallel coupled structures. The proposed filter adopts U-shaped SIRs with open stubs and parallel coupled lines (PCLs) that have inter-digital and comb-line shorted ends. Two U-shaped SIRs with open stubs build the first and third passband, and the central PCL resonators build the second passband. Five resonators and coupling structures are theoretically analyzed to derive the scattering parameters of the proposed filter. A novel tri-band bandpass filter is designed and fabricated using the induced scattering parameters. The measured result of the fabricated tri-band bandpass filter shows a good agreement with the simulated one.

A switchable VCO for DECT handset is designed and fabricated. In dual mode radios, a single VCO is desired to operate at two different frequencies to meet the requirement of two mode(Tx, Rx). The three design types of switchable VCO are switched resonator VCO, switched mode VCO and dual band VCO. In this paper, we use the switched resonator VCO type using pin diode switch to change the total amount of capacitance in the tank circuit. At the bias condition of 3 V and 13mA, the output power and phase noise are better than6.5dBm and -104dBc/Hz at 25khz offset from the carrier, respectively , across the operating frequency range. From these results, the fabricated switched VCO is applicable to the DECT handset.

In this paper, the design and the fabrication of dual-band bandpass filter using two dual-mode resonators is presented. Dual-mode resonator using a short stub is miniaturized by inter-digital capacitor and stepped impedance. Two dual mode resonators are designed to have different resonant frequencies, one for the lower passband and the other for the upper passband. Transmission zero is positioned at low or high rejection bands with a sharp skirt characteristic. Dual-band operation can be achieved using dual feeding structure. For WLAN, the proposed filter at 2.45/5.25 GHz is designed and fabricated. The size of the filter is as compact as 1$10.83\;mm{\times}5.3\;mm$.

In this paper, we propose a new frequency reconfigurable dual-band antenna. By using an electronically compact eighth-mode substrate-integrated-waveguide(EMSIW) resonator, we have designed a compact antenna, which performs dual-band movement by additionally loading a complementary split ring resonator(CSRR) structure. The EMSIW and CSRR structures are designed to satisfy the bandwidths of 1.575 GHz(GPS) and 2.4 GHz(WLAN), respectively. We load the CSRR with a varactor diode to allow a narrow bandwidth and to enable the resonance frequency to continuously vary from 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz. Thus, we realize a channel selection function that is used in the WLAN standards. Irrespective of how a varactor diode moves, the EMSIW independently resonates so that the antenna maintains a fixed frequency of the GPS bandwidth even at different voltages. Consequently, as the DC bias voltage changes from 11.4 V to 30 V, the resonance frequency of the WLAN bandwidth continuously changes between 2.38 GHz and 2.5 GHz, when the DC bias voltage changes from 11.4 V to 30 V. We observe that the simulated and the measured S-parameter values and radiation patterns are in good agreement with each other.

유전체가 삽입된 공동 공진기는 유전체에 대부분의 전자계가 집속되어 있기 때문에, 도체 손실이 매우 적고 높은 Q값과 온도 안정성이 뛰어나다. 동일한 주파수에서 동작하는 다른 필터에 비해 상대적으로 작기 때문에 소형화에도 적합하다. 본 논문에서는 유전체가 삽입된 공동 공진기의 전자기 분포와 특성을 수치해석과 HFSS(High Frequency Structure Simulator)를 이용하여 분석하였고 이 결과를 토대로 HFSS를 이용한 순차적 방법을 도입하여 4-pole 이중모드 대역통과 필터를 설계, 제작하였다.

In this paper, we present a design and implementation of a Voltage-tuned Planar Composite Resonator Oscillator(Vt-PCRO) with a low phase noise. The designed Vt-PCRO is composed of a resonator, two phase shifters, and an amplifier. The resonator is designed using a dual mode SIW(Substrate Integrated Waveguide) resonator and has a group delay of about 40 nsec. Of the two phase shifters (PS1 and PS2), PS1 with a phase shift of $360^{\circ}$ is used for the open loop gain to satisfy oscillation condition without regard to the electrical lengths of the employed microstrip lines in the loop. PS2 with a phase shift of about $70^{\circ}$ is used to tune oscillation frequency. The amplifier is constructed using two stages to compensate for the loss of the open loop. Through the measurement of the open loop gain, the tune voltage of the PS1 can be set to satisfy the oscillation condition and the loop is then closed to form the oscillator. The oscillator with a oscillation frequency of 5.345 GHz shows a phase noise of -130.5 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz frequency offset. The oscillation power and the electrical frequency tuning range is about 3.5 dBm and about 4.2 MHz for a tuning voltage of 0~10 V, respectively.

In this paper, we proposed a new type SIR bandpass filter using DAML. This filter is consisted of 2 layers with MEMS resonator layer and CPW feed line. DAML ring resonator is elevated with $10\;{\mu}m$ height from GaAs substrate. Using MEMS processing, we are able to realize SIR bandpass filter easily. Furthermore it is useful to integrate on conventional MMICs because it has CPW interfaces and ring resonator is isolated from substrate by air-gap. We optimized and measured the results that $S_{21}$ attenuation at rejected band is over 15 dB, insertion loss is inside the limit of 3 dB, and relative bandwidth is about 10 % at 60 GHz

This paper proposes an open-loop clock recovery circuit (CRC) using two high-Q dielectric resonator (DR) filters for 39.8 Gb/s and 42.8 Gb/s dual-mode operation. The DR filters are fabricated to obtain high Q-values of approximately 950 at the 40 GHz band and to suppress spurious resonant modes up to 45 GHz. The CRC is implemented in a compact module by integrating the DR filters with other circuits in the CRC. The peak-to-peak and RMS jitter values of the clock signals recovered from 39.8 Gb/s and 42.8 Gb/s pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) data with a word length of $2^{31}-1$ are less than 2.0 ps and 0.3 ps, respectively. The peak-to-peak amplitudes of the recovered clocks are quite stable and within the range of 2.5 V to 2.7 V, even when the input data signals vary from 150 mV to 500 mV. Error-free operation of the 40 Gb/s-class optical receiver with the dual-mode CRC is confirmed at both 39.8 Gb/s and 42.8 Gb/s data rates.

Compact multi-band bandpass filters using quad-mode stub-loaded resonators are proposed in this letter. Firstly, a novel approach about the mode-splitting characteristics of the quadruple-mode resonator is investigated, which can provide dual-band behavior. Secondly, a quad-band filter is proposed and designed by cascading two quadruple-mode resonators; the upper one operates at 1.8/2.4 GHz (GSM- and WiMax-band) and the lower one at 1.57/2.1 GHz (GPS- and WCDMA-band). Finally, the proposed filters have been fabricated. Respectable agreement between simulation and measurement verifies the validity of this design methodology.

This paper presents a dual-wideband bandpass filter (BPF) with high band-to-band isolation and skirt selectivity using distributed composite right/left-handed (CRLH) transmission line (TL) quad-mode resonators (QMRs). The results of the proposed distributed CRLH TL unit cell analysis are used to establish the scattering parameters and the resonance frequencies of the QMR constituting the dual-wideband BPF. A novel dual-wideband bandpass filter is designed and fabricated, using the derived scattering characteristics. The measured results show that the fabricated dual-wideband bandpass filter has an insertion loss of less than 1.08dB in the lower band, and of 2.01dB in the upper band, a bandwidth of 2.8-5.52GHz and 9.68-12.26GHz, and a band-to-band isolation of more than 38dB, from 6.34-8.42GHz.
