Complex resonant frequency of on a uniaxial substrate with a superstrate-loaded microstrip structure is investigate. The study is performed by Galerkin’s method. The numerical convergence using sinusoidal basis function. Numerical results for the effects of anisotropy in the substrate, superstrate permittivity, in the complex resonant frequency of the rectangular microstrip structure are also presented. Half-power bandwidth are increased due to the positive uniaxial an isotropy and superstrate.

In this study, using a periodical ground structure(PGS) on GaAs monolithic microwave integrated circuit(MMIC), transmission line with a high isolation characteristic was developed for application to compact signal/bias lines of highly integrated MMIC. And the origin of the high isolation characteristic was theoretically investigated. The high isolation characteristic was originated from a resonance between adjacent microstrip lines employing PGS. With only a spacing of $20{\mu}m$, the coupled microstrip line employing PGS showed an isolation value of -47 dB at 60 GHz. The frequency range for high isolation was easily controlled by changing the PGS structure. Above results indicate that microstrip lines employing PGS are very useful for application to compact signal/bias lines of highly integrated MMIC requiring a high isolation characteristics between lines. In addition, equivalent circuit employing closed-form equation for the coupled line with PGS was also extracted.

This paper describes the design of size-reduced ring hybrid couplers (RHC) using a common defected ground structure (CDGS). The proposed RHC consists of double-sided microstrip line and the CDGS patterns which are placed in the common ground plane of the double-sided microstrip line. The effects of DGS as a periodic structure are imposed on both microstrip lines, so the advantages of the existing DGS are doubled. The normal RHC is designed first and folded by the half reference plane with the CDGS realized on the common ground plane. So another trial for size-reduction is performed by folding the RHC and inserting CDGS besides to the conventional DGS. In order to show a design example, a 2GHz RHC is designed and miniaturized using CDGS. The size of the miniaturized RHS is around 50% of the normal one, while the performances are well preserved even after the size-reduction.

The dynamic permittivity of a microstrip structure leads to a convenient and modified Smith-chart representation that includes the frequency-dependent influence of the lossy characteristics of the line cohesively. The efficacy of the model is illustrated with an example concerning a microstrip patch antenna. Relevant simulations show that the input impedances calculated from the model are more accurate than those from the previous model in the literature by comparing to the measure results, as illustrated with an example of a patch antenna. This model is compatible for CAD efforts with MATLAB$\^$TM/ facilitation fast and user-friendly implementations.

In this paper we propose low-impedance and miniaturized a wilkinson power divider on MMIC passive component which was fabricated by a novel microstrip line structure employing periodically perforated ground metal (PPGM). The novel microstrip line structure showed much lower impedance and shorter guided-wavelength than conventional one. Using the novel microstrip line with periodically perforated ground metal, a miniaturized 17 ${\Omega}$ power divider was fabricated. The line width of the power divider was 20 ${\mu}m$, and the size of it was 0.110 $mm^2$, which is 21 % of conventional one. The power divider exhibited good RF performances from 10 to 20 GHz.

In order to derive simple and accurate closed-form spatial Greep’s functions for the thick microstrip substrate, an efficient method based on the two-level approach, which circumvents the burdensome steps (i.e., without necessity of extraction of quasi-static contributions and subsequent determination of approximation parameters) in the previous complex image method, is considered in conjunction with the use of the original Prony`s method. The present method is observed to give more accurate results for the evaluation of the Green`s functions over wider frequency range independently of the source-to-field distances than the previous method.

In this paper, a novel low phase noise voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) using metamaterial structure and rat race coupler is presented for reducing the phase noise without the reduction of the frequency tuning range. The metamaterial structure has been realized by microstrip square open loop double split ring resonator (SRR). The rat race coupler shows slightly higher transmission compared to a Wilkinson combiner and is, therefore, used instead to improve the performances of VCO. By providing these unique modifications, the proposed push-push VCO has a phase noise of -126.30~-124.83 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz in the tuning range of 5.672~5.800 GHz.

본 연구에서는 여파성 표면(FSS : frequency Selective Surface)을 가지는 마이크로스트립 표면파안테나(SWA : Surface Wave Antenna)를 설계 제작하여 그 특성을 실험적으로 고찰한다. 표면파 안테나는 마이크로스트립을 이용하여 박막, 경량, 간단한 제조와 고주파 집적회로에 적합하며 모노폴 안테나와 유사한 방사패턴을 가진다. 여파성 표면을 가지는 마이크로스트립 표면파 안테나는 표면파의 여기를 위한 중앙급전 방식의 마이크로스트립 패치와 표면파의 방사를 위한 주기적인 구조의 패치를 적층하여 구성한다. 광대역 특성을 얻기 위하여 링 모양의 기생 패치를 추가하였고, FSS 단위소자로 원형의 패치를 선택하였다. 실험결과, 공진 주파수는 5.9GHz이고, 대역폭은 12%이며, 5.6dBi의 이득을 나타내었다.

Radiation characteristics of a microstrip patch antenna integrated with a UC-EBG (Uniplanar Compact Electromagnetic Bandgap) structure and a Mushroom EBG structure are compared. Radiation characteristics of a patch antenna integrated with a Mushroom EBG structure are better than those of a patch antenna integrated with a UC-EBG structure.

In this paper, an analysis of microstrip-slotline transition is performed using a 3D vector Finite Element Method(FEM). Artificial anistropic absorber technique is employed to implement an matching boundary condition in FEM. On the base of the analysis, power divider/combiner is designed. The structure of the power combiner already developed are Branch-line coupler, Rat-race coupler, Wilkinson coupler, Lange coupler, etc. Which are all planar, If the frequency goes up, the coupling efficiency of these planar couplers is decreased on account of skin loss. Especially, in millimeter-wave band, the efficiency of more than two ways combiner is radically reduced, so that application in power amplifier circuit is almost impossible, Microstrip-slotline transition structure is a power combining technique integrated into wave-guide, so that the loss is small and the efficiency is high. Theoretically, we can mount several transistors into the power-combiner. This makes it possible to develop a high power amplifier. The numerically calculated performances of the device that is, we believe, the best are compared to the experimental results in Ka-Band(26.5GHz-40GHz).
