ABSTRACT In this paper, all optical OR, AND, NOR and NAND gates based on linear photonic crystals (LPhCs) have been numerically designed and simulated by the plane wave expansion (PWE) and finite difference time domain (FDTD) methods. The LPhC fundamental structure with cross-section of 114 is used for designing the proposed all optical gates (AOGATEs), which is composed of 15 × 23 cubic matrix of dielectric silicon rods in air substrate. The mechanism of the proposed AOGATEs is performed based on phase shift keying (PSK) technique and beam interference effect. Simulation results by FDTD approach illustrate the minimum contrast ratio of 8.88 and 10.31 dB for all optical AND/NOR and OR/NAND logic gates, respectively. Also, the minimum bit rate is obtained as 3.34 Tb/s for AND/NOR and 5 Tb/s for OR/NAND logic gates.

ABSTRACT Wideband microstrip antenna is realized by adding more than one resonant modes in the patch. In this paper, on electrically thinner substrate, design of modified shape rectangular microstrip antenna by employing folded rectangular patch is presented for linear polarized wideband response. Unlike the conventional rectangular patch, radiation pattern and resonance frequency at the second-order resonant mode are modified and along with the fundamental mode, yield wider bandwidth. On substrate of thickness 0.045λ0, folded patch design yields bandwidth of more than 20% along with the broadside radiation pattern and gain more than 8 dBi. Against the reported wideband designs, proposed design does not employ parasitic patches, resonant slot, modified ground plane structures, but on thinner substrate achieves the bandwidth of more than 20%. Resonant length formulation and subsequent design methodology are presented, which is useful in realizing similar folded antenna as per the specific frequency band. Simulated results have been experimentally verified, which shows close agreement.

ABSTRACT A new ultra-low profile reconfigurable multi-beam antenna is proposed. It is based on impedance modulated metasurface fed with a one-divide-four electronically controllable feed network. By properly arranging the feed network, six beams at different azimuth planes are formed by controlling four diodes. The gain is enhanced through loading a cross metal strip in the middle of metasurface. The results indicate that the realized antenna has dimensions of 126 mm × 126 mm × 4 mm (equal to 2.1λ0 ×2.1λ0 ×0.067λ0, λ0, wavelength at 5 GHz). Its −10-dB bandwidth is larger than 30.0% (4.28 GHz − 5.79 GHz) when diodes I-V are turned on successively. And it can radiate beams pointing to (0°, 33°), (20°, 44°), (150°, 36°), (180°, 35°). Furthermore, the beams can be steered to (0°, 43°) and (180°, 43°) in case that diodes I&II or III&IV are switched on simultaneously.

ABSTRACT A wideband omnidirectional dipole antenna with parasitic loop based on multi-resonant modes is proposed for WLAN, 5 G Sub-6 GHz, and RFID applications. The antenna is composed of a regular dipole with co-planar strips and a parasitic loop with four U-shaped branches. A regular dipole with co-planar strips is used to generate two resonant modes, and the parasitic loop around it generates another two resonant modes. By combining these four resonant modes, a wideband characteristic is achieved. In order to reduce the cross-polarization, four U-shaped branches are introduced, and then the cross-polarization levels are decreased from −2 dB to −13 dB. A prototype with a compact size of 0.6λ0 ×0.56λ0 ×0.012λ0 (λ0 is the wavelength in free space at center frequency) is fabricated and tested. Measurement shows that effective bandwidth is 1.8–5.6 GHz (102.7%), the measured gain variation is only 1.3 dBi, and omnidirectional radiation patterns are achieved over the operating band.
摘要提出了一种基于多谐振模式的带寄生环的宽带全向偶极天线,用于WLAN,5 G Sub-6 GHz和RFID应用。该天线由一个具有共面条带的规则偶极子和一个具有四个U形分支的寄生环组成。具有共面条带的规则偶极子用于产生两种谐振模式,其周围的寄生环产生另外两种谐振模。通过组合这四种谐振模式,实现了宽带特性。为了减少交叉极化,引入了四个U形分支,然后将交叉极化水平从−2降低 dB至−13 dB。制作并测试了一个紧凑尺寸为0.6λ0×0.56λ0×0.012λ0(λ0是中心频率下自由空间中的波长)的原型。测量表明,有效带宽为1.8–5.6 GHz(102.7%),测量的增益变化仅为1.3dBi,并且在工作频带上实现了全向辐射方向图。

ABSTRACT This paper presents a new compact monopulse comparator network system (MCNS) using a modal substrate-integrated waveguide (SIW) hybrid coupler for the first time. The main objective of this research is to evaluate the performance of dual-plane MCNS based on return loss and coupling coefficients. A detailed analysis, design, and implementation of dual-plane MCNS is performed using the four modal SIW hybrid couplers. The sum and difference signals required by the monopulse antenna are generated with the proper orientation of couplers. The in-phase and out-phase characteristics of the couplers are generated using TE102 and TE201 orthogonal degenerate modes. A complete planar and compact SIW structure has a footprint of 58.2 mm × 58.2 mm. MCNS is fabricated on a single-layer Rogers RO4003 substrate with a permittivity of 3.55 and thickness of 0.787 mm using a photo-lithographic process. MCNS provides excellent return loss characteristics at all input and output ports. It measured the isolation better than 20 dB for all output ports in the desired frequency band. It achieved good coupling between all input and output ports. Simulation and measured results show that at 10 GHz, MCNS gives better performance parameters and can be used in monopulse antenna.

ABSTRACT In this paper, a wideband dielectric resonator antenna with compact size is presented. The proposed antenna is formed by four dielectrics. Non-adjacent dielectrics have same permittivity constant. A 50-ohm micro strip feed line is used to exciting the antenna through the coupling slot. By optimizing the dimensions and structure of the antenna, impedance bandwidth of 3.25 to 4.4 GHz is obtained. Impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna is a very wide bandwidth compared to the previous dielectric antennas. The antenna gain is about 9.6 dB.

ABSTRACT This work presents balanced microstrip filters with asymmetrical frequency response based on a balanced trisection topology. The proposed balanced trisection topology has the feature of being used in single and multiband microwave filters. In this work, in order to test the topology flexibility, we address two applications, one for a single-band filter and the other for a dual-band filter. This topology introduces TZs on either side of the passband edges, improving the selectivity on one side of the passband. The non-adjacent resonators of the single-band trisection balanced filter are based on a Pi-network balanced resonator which is composed by six transmission lines (TLs) and two inductors (Ls). The differential-mode (DM) and common-mode (CM) resonances can be chosen independently with a proper selection of the impedances and the electrical lengths of TLs in order to have high DM stopband and intrinsic high common mode rejection (CMR). The Pi-network was modified and analyzed under the even and odd mode technique to have a dual-band behavior. Good agreement between simulation and measurement was achieved.

ABSTRACT In this work, a dielectric resonator antenna element is corrugated in a specific way, which led to increase its half power beam width (HPBW). The HPBW of the antenna is investigated for different values of corrugation depth and it has been concluded that HPBW can be increased by increasing this depth. By embedding periodic grooves in the DRA walls, it is possible to adjust the radiation intensity ratio of the upper wall to the side walls. By increasing this ratio, the HPBW of the antenna can be increased. To confirm the concept of beam widening method, a prototype of the corrugated DRA is fabricated and measured. Measured results show an impedance bandwidth of 23% (3.8–4.8 GHz). The measured E- and H-plane HPBWs at 4.1 GHz are 137° and 123°, respectively. Measured and simulated results are in a good agreement.

ABSTRACT A miniaturized dual-polarized smartphone antenna based on tightly coupled dipole array (TCDA), applying to 5 G millimeter-wave (mmW), is presented. The antenna element has a size of 2.94 mm × 3.05 mm × 0.94 mm and covers a bandwidth of 91.5% and 88.4% with VSWR<2 for pol-x and pol-y, respectively. To achieve low cost, compact size, and reduce the number of ports, a specific miniature feeding structure, using Γ-shaped coupling probes, is applied. The proposed smartphone antenna consists of eight elements with a size of 23.8 mm × 3.5 mm × 0.94 mm. Experiments show that the TCDA can support a minimum realized gain of 9.51 dB and 9.07 dB for pol-x and pol-y, respectively, within 5 G mmW bands. To verify the design concept, TCDA is fabricated and measured, which achieves 60° scanning without grating lobes. The measurement results demonstrate that the proposed antenna is well suited for future 5 G mmW mobile phones.
提出了一种适用于5g毫米波(mmW)的基于紧密耦合偶极子阵列(TCDA)的小型化双极化智能手机天线。天线单元尺寸为2.94 mm × 3.05 mm × 0.94 mm, pol-x和pol-y的VSWR分别为91.5%和88.4%。为了实现低成本,紧凑的尺寸,并减少端口的数量,一个特定的微型进料结构,使用Γ-shaped耦合探头,被应用。该智能手机天线由8个单元组成,尺寸为23.8 mm × 3.5 mm × 0.94 mm。实验表明,TCDA在5g毫米波频段内,pol-x和pol-y的最小实现增益分别为9.51 dB和9.07 dB。为了验证设计理念,制作并测量了TCDA,实现了无光栅瓣的60°扫描。测试结果表明,该天线非常适合未来的5g毫米波移动电话。

The antenna element has a size of 2.94 mm × 3.05 mm × 0.94 mm and covers a bandwidth of 91.5% and 88.4% with VSWR<2 for pol-x and pol-y, respectively. To achieve low cost, compact size, and reduce the number of ports, a specific miniature feeding structure, using Γ-shaped coupling probes, is applied. The proposed smartphone antenna consists of eight elements with a size of 23.8 mm × 3.5 mm × 0.94 mm. Experiments show that the TCDA can support a minimum realized gain of 9.51 dB and 9.07 dB for pol-x and pol-y, respectively, within 5 G mmW bands. To verify the design concept, TCDA is fabricated and measured, which achieves 60° scanning without grating lobes. The measurement results demonstrate that the proposed antenna is well suited for future 5 G mmW mobile phones.","PeriodicalId":50542,"journal":{"name":"Electromagnetics","volume":"43 1","pages":"258 - 268"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44053241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
