ANN Model of RF MEMS Lateral SPDT Switches for Millimeter Wave Applications
This paper presents Artificial Neural Network (ANN) implementation for the Radio Frequency (RF) and Mechanical modeling of lateral RF Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) series micro machined Single pole double through (SPDT) switch. We propose an efficient approach based on ANN for analyzing the losses in ON and OFF state of lateral RF MEMS series switch by calculating the S-parameters. The...
متن کاملRF MEMS Switches for Antenna Applications
RF Micro-Electro-Mechanical (MEM) switches have numerous potential applications from mode switching in cell phones at 1-2 GHz to phased array antennas for space-based radar applications. However, environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and foreign contaminants play a significant role in switch reliability and lifetime. The effects of these environmental factors must be mitigated to...
متن کاملRF MEMS Switches
An overview of the MEMS technology development and applications is given in this paper. A special attention is paid to the RF MEMS switches. Both series and shunt MEMS switches have been considered. It is also presented a technique for modeling and design of inductively-tuned MEMS shunt switch. Some very important issues for the device maturity e.g. reliability and packaging have been addressed.
متن کاملDevelopment of RF MEMS Switches for High Power Applications
This paper introduces a new concept in RF MEMS switches intended for high RF signal power applications at millimetre-wave operation. The novel SPST switch architecture employs electrothermal hydraulic microactuators. Out-of-plane silicon levers, having spring action and latching mechanisms, have been designed to create an OFF-state gap separation distance of 250 μm between ohmic contact electro...
متن کاملGallium Phosphide IMPATT Sources for Millimeter-Wave Applications
The potentiality of millimter-wave (mm-wave) double-drift region (DDR) impact avalanche transit time (IMPATT) diodes based on a wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductor material, Gallium Phosphide (GaP) has been explored in this paper. A non-sinusoidal voltage excited (NSVE) large-signal simulation method has been used to study the DC and high frequency characteristics of DDR GaP IMPATTs dsigned to ope...
