This paper introduces an design of frequency agile synthesizer which combines the direct frequency synthesis technology of analog and digital methods. Firstly, the DDS generates a low frequency signal which has low phase noise and fast frequency switching time, and then the harmonic generators provide the high frequency local oscillator signals to mix with the output of DDS, which realize the signal spectrum shifting and band broadening. Finally it generates a fast-switching signal with the bandwidth of 14~20GHz, frequency step of 0.5MHz, switching time less than 150ns, phase noise better than −100dBc /Hz@1kHz, and the spurious suppression better than −65dBc.

A wideband antenna using BCB films is presented in the paper. The miniaturization of AMC unit cell is illustrated in the first section. It is composed of a non-uniform AMC ground, a dipole with E-shaped arms and a differential feed. The antenna exhibits a relative bandwidth of 9.28% (120.5 - 132.2 GHz). The maximum realized gain is about 7.65 dBi. There is remarkable improvement compared with antennas using uniform AMC grounds. With a low profile, the presented antenna is suitable for D-band on-chip wireless communications.

A wideband substrate integrated coaxial line (SICL)-fed planar dipole antenna array is investigated for millimeter wave applications. Different from the traditional dual-armed dipole antenna, a balanced symmetric structure is formed to improve the cross-polarization level by canceling the vertically polarized electric-field components. Meanwhile, three slots are etched on the dipole arms for two operating modes to broaden the operating bandwidth of the dipole element. By these methods, the dipole antenna achieves a cross-polarization level below −28 dB and an impedance bandwidth of more than 65%. To further improve the gain of the antenna, a $1times 8$ dipole array is proposed. The measured results show that the proposed dipole array can achieve a wide −10 dB impedance bandwidth of more than 70.6% from 22.3 to 47 GHz, and cross-polarization levels below −20 dB. With the merits of wideband, low cross-polarization, low profile and easy integration, the proposed antenna array is valuable to millimeter wave communication.

In the process of practical application, coaxial cable is prone to soft faults such as wear. In this paper, the influence of faulty cable on impedance spectrum is analyzed by using the transmission line model of coaxial cable and the frequency characteristics of distributed parameters. Using impedance spectrum and propagation coefficient, based on integral transformation, the soft fault detection model of coaxial cable is theoretically analyzed, and the fault location diagnosis model is established. Then ADS software is used to simulate the fault detection model. The simulation results are good and the error is small. Finally, combined with the simulation steps, some suggestions for practical engineering application are given.

We present an E-plane waveguide coupler that can be used in the terahertz frequency band. Several slits are designed in the center of E-plane waveguide. These structures reduce the difficulty of metal processing of the E-plane coupler because of their smaller aspect ratio of branches. The simulation results of the proposed coupler are better than those of the traditional branch coupler. At 206~231 GHz, the amplitude imbalance between the through and the coupling ports of the coupler is less than 0.2dB, the phase imbalance is 90±0.5 degrees, the return loss and the isolation between output ports are better than 25 dB.

This paper is about the complexity and difficulties of the full-wave electromagnetic simulation of the new integrated phased-array antennas. It has been becoming more and more difficult to simulate high density integrated antennas on system level since the new active phased array antennas with passive circuits such as Antenna-in-Package (AiP) or Antenna-on-Board become a major development trend. Different simulation methods and varieties of three-dimensional electromagnetic simulation software will be listed and compared, and a possible simulation method is pointed.

In this paper, a circularly polarized annular slit antenna with a center frequency of 2.15 GHz realized through a metasurface was designed. The metasurface is made up of 5×5 periodic units. The impedance bandwidth of annular slit antenna is 2.08-2.5 GHz and after loading the metasurface the frequency range in which the axis ratio of the antenna is less than 3dB is 2.12-2.18 GHz and the gain reaches 3.5 dBi. The linear polarization antenna can be directly converted into circular polarization antenna by loading the metasurface.

Prototypes of three categories filtering bandpass power dividers are presented in this letter. Their common points are M-sections cascaded transformer structure and $M+1$ sections shorted stubs. To realize different performance, three specific structures are adopted in these categories' prototypes of power divider. Specifically, three different performances of proposed three prototypes are perfect isolation in the passband, smaller circuit size and out-of-band rejection, respectively. Three proposed prototypes are analysis by even- and odd-mode method, and the binding relationship in mathematics are deduced. Finally, three experimental circuits of corresponding prototypes are fabricated, and high consistency exist in the measured results and simulated results.
