In order to develop a tunable resonator which can be easily operated by DC bias and applied for microwave tunable filters and devices using ferroelectric thin or thick films, the non conductor backed-and conductor backed- coplanar stripline resonators have been designed and analyzed. They have been designed to be operated at 25 GHz which involve coplanar stripline input and output ports. The resonators have been simulated and analyzed using Ansoft HFSS. The research has been focused on the Quality factor of the coplanar stripline resonator. The conductor Q, box Q, and radiation Q of the resonators have been analyzed and calculated according to the substrate thickness & conductor width of the resonators. From these parameters, the loss factors of the coplanar stripline resonator have been investigated. The conducting Q of the coplanar stripline resonator has no relation with the thickness of dielectric substrate and increases as the conductor width increases. The box Q has no much relation with the thickness of substrate and the conductor width, which is above 2000. The radiation loss increases as the thickness of substrate and the conductor width increase. To decrease the radiation loss of the coplanar stripline resonator, a conductor backed coplanar stripline resonator has been proposed which has the unloaded Q of 170.

In this paper, an EBG(Electromagnetic BandGap) resonator antenna with a stripline type FSS(Frequency Selective Surface) superstrate for PCS-band base station antennas is proposed. The characteristics of resonant frequency and -3dB bandwidth of a unit cell of a superstrate are first analyzed by varing several design parameters such as a strip width and a unit cell width in order to design an EBG resonator antenna satisfying the required antenna gain and bandwidth for PCS-band base station antennas. Among various unit cell shapes, strip dipole and stripline are considered and their characteristics are compared. It was found that a resonant length of the EBG resonator antenna becomes smaller when the stripline shape is used and the control of the bandwidth is also much easier. By using the unit cell simulation results, planar and cylindrical EBG resonator antennas at PCS-band are designed.

In RF application of resonator, cylinerical and transmission line(TRL) type are used generally, especially in ceramic modules the latter is used widely, TRL type resonators are used in VCO and RF filters etc.. TRL type resonators are divided stripline and microstripline and their characteristics depend on that of conductor and dielectric materials. In this study, the effect of material properties on the stripline resonator is measured and analyzed. Besides, the optimum design rule of resonator is presented.

A microplasma system source based on microwave parallel stripline resonator (MPSR) was developed for the generation of microplasmas in a wide range of pressure from some torr to 760 torr. This source was operated at its resonance frequency that much depends upon not only its discharge gap size but also operated pressure. This paper applied a simple circuit model to analyze the effects of discharge gap size and pressure to resonance frequency and impedance of MPSR in the cases with and without plasma exist inside the discharge gap. In the process of calculating, the conformal mapping method was used to estimate the capacitance of the MPSR. The calculating results by using circuit model agree well with the simulation results that using commercial CST microwave studio software.

A very small size BPF is realized using LTCC Multilayer technology. A λ/4 resonator with shunt-to-ground loaded capacitor is used to shorten resonator length and achieve higher qualityfactor. Also this resonator enable BPF to improve out-of-band rejection. Coupling coefficients between coupled stripline resonators and external qualityfactor of a resonator are derived and apply to the filter design. The measured results show a good agreement with the simulation.

In this paper, we introduce the contactless power transmission device for transmitting the power with the resonant characteristic of the cavity resonator. When transmitting the power, the contactless power transmission device begins to work in the condition where the transceiver adheres closely. The transceiver is electrically separated because there is no conductive terminal outside and the size of the receiver required for the electric power transmission can be minimized. The cavity resonator comprises slots for the input port and output port in the upper side conductor plate of the cavity and forms the input port and output port using the stripline structure at this upper part. The some of output port is separated from it and the electric power receiver is formed thus the union can be possible. The rest except electric power receiver become the electric power transmitter, which includes the input port of stripline-slot coupling, cavity, and the slot of the output port. If the transmitter and the receiver are combined, they become the form in which the electricity is transferred from the input port to the output port in a cavity resonator. The center frequency of the contactless power transmitter manufactured is 5.782 GHz. and $S_{21}$ is measured as -1.07 dB. It is confirmed that the high electric power transfer rate is approximately 78 %.

In this paper, a new design method of a tunable oscillator using a suspended-stripline resonator is presented. The negative resistance of an FET mounted on microstrip line(MSL) is combined with a high Q suspended-stripline(SSL) resonator to produce a tunable oscillator with good phase noise. The new MSL-SSL transition facilitates the easy connection between the MSL-based circuits and the SSL module. The proposed oscillator is also frequency-tunable using a tuner located on the top of the SSL housing. The measured phase noise of the implemented oscillator at 3.37 GHz is -108.03 dBc@100 kHz and -135.09 dBc@1 MHz with 50 MHz of frequency tuning.
