Analysis of the Transition between Two Coplanar Waveguide Transmission Lines
نویسندگان
چکیده
Different approaches for the transition between two coplanar waveguides of different characteristic impedances have been investigated to improve the efficiency of both feeding network and the antenna element of an antenna system operating in the Xband. Return loss, effect of feed line shaping and parametric study are presented with each approach. The outcomes of this study leads to efficient transition between the antenna element and its feeding network.

A Method for Characterizing Coplanar Waveguide-to- Microstrip Transitions, and Its Application to the Measurement of Microstrip Devices with Coplanar Microprobes
This paper presents a method for characterizing coplanar waveguide-to-microstrip (CPW-M) transitions by using on-wafer coplanar (CPW) microprobes. It is based on extracting the transmission matrix of the CPW-M transition from the measurement of the S parameters of two microstrip transmission lines of different lengths, each of which includes two CPW-M transitions. To verify the proposed method,...
متن کاملMicrowave properties of Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 thin film coplanar phase shifters
Coplanar waveguide transmission lines have been used to show that the temperature dependent properties of Ba 0.5 Sr 0.5 TiO 3 thin films used for microwave phase shifters in the frequency range 45 MHz– 50 GHz are correlated strongly with the microstructure of the films. The highest tunability and figure of merit of the phase shifters were obtained for films with the narrowest ferroelectric-para...

We report systems for network measurements at millimeter-wave frequencies. Active probes are used for on-wafer measurements to approximately 150 GHz. The active probes incorporate monolithic GaAs mm-wave network analysis circuits (comprising a nonlinear transmission line stimulus signal generator and a directional sampling circuit) and lowloss, rugged quartz coplanar-waveguide probe tips. Wideb...

ISSN 2277 5080 | © 2012 Bonfring Abstract--In this paper, a modified form of rectenna has been designed for wireless power transmission. Generally, rectenna is nothing but a rectifying antenna which is very much useful for converting RF power into usable DC power. The word ‘rectenna’ was first introduced by W.C.Brown. Even though there is an enormous application of rectenna, wireless transmissi...
