A novel, compact, multiple band notch filter (MBNF) is presented. Contiguous and concentric split ring resonators (SRRs) and ring resonator are used to achieve desired multiple narrow band notches. These band notches have been designed to avoid the undesired interference between co-existing wireless channels. Proposed filter is implemented on RT/Duroid 5880 (εr=2.2) substrate of thickness 0.785 mm and surface area of 14 × 14 sq. mm. Insertion loss of the proposed filter at notch bands is high (>13 dB) and low (<0.8 dB) elsewhere. Measured results are correlated with simulated results and ensure proposed filter is a suitable candidate to mitigate interference caused by the co-existing and emerging wireless technologies.

This paper presents a highly compact inkjet printed microstrip bandstop filter (BSF) for interference suppression in multi-standard wireless applications. The structure is designed with strict specifications for inkjet printing such as the use of the Kapton substrate and its flexible polyimide film. The design was simulated based on Kapton substrate with a thickness of 50µm and dielectric constant of 3.4. The simulated results show a good narrowband response with good stopband attenuation of about 38 dB. When compared to other published BSFs, the proposed structure occupies the least normalized area and best return loss performance up to 10 GHz. This filter is then used to reject interference in a multi-standard wireless transmitter system with suppression of about 30 dB achieved with a great level of noise and spurious response reduction thereby improving the overall performance of the system. This type of filter will be very useful to eliminate undesired signals in next generation 4G LTE-Advanced and 5G mobile networks as well as being very attractive for modern day multi-standard wireless applications such as machine to machine (M2M) communications and internet of things (IoT).

An entirely printed NRI metamaterial based upon arrays of split-ring-resonators (SRRs) and strip conductors is proposed. Unlike other SRR / strip conductor based NRI metamaterials, the density of the strips is considerably less than that of the SRRs. This thinned array of strips, along with the use of broad-side coupled SRRs permits operation at low microwave frequencies without lumped inductors. The calculated, simulated and experimental results, for an NRI metamaterial, operating at 3 GHz, and mounted in a waveguide test fixture, demonstrates the feasibility of this approach.

Second iterative star shaped fractal geometry of the radiator, modified feedline and notch loaded semi-elliptical ground plane are used to achieve an impedance bandwidth of 4.6–52 GHz. A good agreement is observed between the simulated and experimental results. It has an overall volume of 19.7×19×1.6 mm3. It has advantages of miniaturized dimensions and wider bandwidth over previously reported structures.

The purpose of this work is to maximize the efficiency of rectifier topologies used for wireless power transmission system operating at 2.4 GHz. This paper particularly presents the design of GaN Schottky diode rectifier circuit topologies including series diode half wave rectifier, shunt diode half wave rectifier and voltage doubler rectifier. Micro-strip matching networks are designed and optimized to reduce the reflection losses and increase the efficiency of the rectifier. A comparative study shows that the voltage doubler rectifier has higher efficiency than the series and shunt diode rectifiers. The simulation results show that the GaN Schottky diode voltage doubler rectifier circuit gives an efficiency of 78.2 percentage with an input power of 34 dBm when using a load resistance of 1000 Ohms.

In this paper, authors present a time-domain performance analysis and comparison of various band-notch techniques that are popularly used in UWB antennas. Three different band-notch techniques are implemented to a reference UWB antenna to realize a band-notch behavior at WLAN band. The antennas are analyzed in both frequency domain and time domain. The present study explores time-domain behavior i.e. pulse distortion and ringing due to band-notched techniques to UWB antennas.

This paper introduces a new way of evaluating performance of mm-wave integrated multiplier chains based on the power efficiency. Although superior performance of III–V technologies are acknowledged, focus of the paper will be on Silicon circuits which are more suited for large-scale multi-element integrated arrays. It will be discussed that power efficiency of the multiplier chain including the dc power required for generating the input RF signal is a very important metric for selecting the topology and configuration of the system. We will demonstrate that proper choice of topology as well as optimized circuit design yield state-of-the art output power at 260GHz–280GHz in SiGe and CMOS circuits.
