Distributed Amplifiers with Composite Left/right-handed Transmission Lines
نویسنده
چکیده
The use of so-called “composite left/right-handed transmission lines” in the design of distributed amplifiers is discussed using a simple model for the active device. The simplified analysis performed herein shows that it is possible to modify the frequency response of forward and reverse power gains, a significant development which could lead to innovative distributed amplifier designs. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Miniaturized High-Pass Filter Based on Balanced Composite Right-Left Handed Transmission Line Using Meander Spiral Complementary Split Ring Resonators
In this paper, a compact high-pass filter (HPF) with a sharp rejection response based on the balanced composite right-left handed (CRLH) transmission line (TL) concept is proposed. A series LC resonator using an interdigital capacitor and meander lines is designed. Also, a meander spiral complementary split ring resonator (MSCSRR) is used to realize the parallel LC resonator. The high-pass filt...

In this paper we propose the use of Composite Right/Left Hand (CRLH) and Extended Composite Right/Left Hand (ECRLH) transmission lines for the design of dual band high efficiency power amplifiers working in CE class. The harmonic termination can be synthesized using the meta-lines is particularly suitable for CE class amplifiers, which have a termination not as sensitive to the third harmonic a...
متن کاملLeaky Wave Antenna Realization by Compos- Ite Right/left-handed Transmission Line
This paper presents a realization of composite right/left handed transmission lines using coupled microstrip lines. This structure exploits the advantages of the microstrip lines, while increases the coupling by a floating conductor at the ground plane. The performance of this composite right/left-handed line is demonstrated by both simulated and measured results, and they show good agreement. ...

We report terahertz metamaterial waveguides based on the concept of composite right/left-handed transmission-lines. The waveguides are implemented in a metal-insulator-metal geometry fabricated with spin-coated Benzocyclobutene and contact photolithography. Angle-resolved reflection spectroscopy shows strong resonant absorption features corresponding to both right-handed and left-handed (backwa...
متن کاملPassive Diplexers and Active Filters based on Metamaterial Particles
Composite transmission lines are one of the main developments in the increasingly popular field of electromagnetic metamaterials, artificial electromagnetic structures with both negative electric permittivity and magnetic permeability (Caloz & Itoh, 2005). These structures present a backward wave or left-handed (LH) propagation instead of the conventional right-handed one. The first experimenta...
