Abstract
A sensitive, miniaturized, ultrawideband probe is proposed for near-field measurements. The proposed probe is based on a new V-shaped tip design and a slope structure resulting in better field distribution and impedance matching with a span bandwidth from 10 kHz up to 52 GHz, which is compatible with ultrawideband applications. The proposed E-probe fabrication process utilizes a four-layer printed circuit board (PCB) using Rogers RO4003 (tm) and RO4450 high-performance dielectrics, with εr = 3.55 and 3.3, respectively. The probe length is 40 mm with a minimum width of 4 mm, which is suitable for narrow, complex, and integrated PCBs. The passive E-probe sensitivity is −106.29 dBm and −87.48 dBm at 2 GHz and 40 GHz, respectively. It has a very small spatial resolution of 0.5 mm at 20, 25, 30, and 35 GHz. The probe is small and cheap and can diagnose electromagnetic interference (EMI) in electronic systems such as telemetry, UAVs, and avionics.
期刊介绍：
Sensors (ISSN 1424-8220) provides an advanced forum for the science and technology of sensors and biosensors. It publishes reviews (including comprehensive reviews on the complete sensors products), regular research papers and short notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced.
